Still hoping that someday I will be able to get it
running myself.

I have built the h8300 cross compilers many times now. It was hard at first,
but now I've nailed down the correct set of options, I have no problems.
Here are the commands I use:

First:
export PATH=/h8x/bin:$PATH

Binutils:
../configure --prefix=/h8x --target=h8300-hms --disable-nls
make
make install

GCC:
../configure --prefix=/h8x --target=h8300-hms --disable-nls --enable-languag
es=c,c++ --with-newlib
make ALL_TARGET_MODULES=""
make INSTALL_TARGET_MODULES="" install

I am using gcc-2.95.3 (unmodified, straight from the GNU mirrors) plus the
rcx-compiler patch (the two patches [why two? - they could be one file!] in
legos-buildgcc.zip), and binutils from CVS, although I know binutils-2.12
was the last version to work properly. A bug was introduced in 2.12.1, which
persisted through 2.13 and 2.13.1, but is now fixed in cvs. Also, binutils
has always had a buffer overrun code in a bit of its coff-h8300 code, but as
of 2.13, that started causing a segfault, and is not yet fixed. I've posted
a patch to brickos to work around that one.

Max.
