I would simply like to remind everyone that a general archive of
unix-pc software is maintained on osu-cis.  This archive is accessible
both by uucp and by anonymous Internet FTP.  The archive presently
contains binaries of gcc-1.36, compiled for the unix-pc.  To the best
of my knowledge, these binaries suffer none of the problems John
describes (I've been using gcc 1.36 for a few weeks now with no
problems).

I maintain the osu-cis unix-pc archives, so if you have any questions
about them, send me mail.

Access info, briefly (note that complete access details are regularly
posted by Karl Kleinpaste to newsgroup comp.sources.d).

By UUCP, all files are in osu!~/att7300/*.  Retrieve README.Z to see
the latest listing of contents.  In your L.sys file, you will need a
line something like this:

osu-cis Any ACU 1200 16142923112 "" \d\r\c Name? osu-cis GO \d\r\d\r in:--in: Uanon

By FTP, just connect to cis.ohio-state.edu and poke around in the
pub/archives/att7300 area.

Happy snarfing.
