Before I ftp to Germany, what can peoples tell me about this gcc?

1. Is it a port of the Gnu C compiler?

if so...

2. Does it support all the features the Gnu CC does?

if not...

3. Which ones?
   a. local & global optimization?
   b. 6888x code generation?
   c. stdio & other libraries?
   d. Ansi proposed standard code compilation?
   e. Lightening fast compilation?
   f. 68020/68030 code generation?
   g. Linker included?
   f. Other stuff?

4. Is it available closer to California (If gnu, better be!).

5. Anything else important?
