Re: gcc 3.0 cross compiler Linux IA32 -> Win32 Intel (cygwin or anything)

[Tom dot Williams at diversifiedsoftware dot com]

I believe in order for a Mingw-targetted cross compiler to work correctly
(i.e. generate the correct code), patches need to be made to the main gcc
source code and those patches have not been generated (yet) for gcc-3.x.

For starters, you can see how far you get with this:

$ ./configure --target=i386-mingw32 --prefix={installation path for cross
compiler} --host={linux-triple} --build={linux-triple}

Good luck!  :)

Peace.....

I would like to make a gcc 3.x cross compiler for Win32 on an Intel Linux
host.
I looked at the mingw cross compilation script (the link was in a previous
post), but it seemed that it only
worked for making gcc 2.x.

Clarification: it is the cross compiler I want to be version 3.0, I already
have a working native gcc 3.

I would be happy to get some pointers... (Or a complete step-by-step guide
for the dummy I am  [;-)]
