I think that you need a local c colpiler like cc to install gcc from
scratch (with ld, and ar).  You also need the c libraries libc.a and
libm.a from your SW development kit inorder to use gcc.  There is no
free sw development kit from the free software foundation; they do offer
some nice extensions to your existing sw development kit.
