Hi,

I successfully built binutils 2.10, gcc 2.95.2 and insight 5.0 under Win98 
about a week ago (target arm-elf). I went through unspeakable horror 
beforehand, though. I think the Great Old Ones disapprove of this toolchain.

I think there is some random condition involved in the build process, at 
least for gcc (I never had problems building binutils or insight). Under 
both Windows 2000 and Win98, I had tried the build op several times and it 
worked once, failed other times.
