The include files in /usr/include/mac should be ok with either a
16 or 32 bit compiler, since they were intended to work with both.

Regarding compiling macboot/kernel with a 32 bit compiler:
Since the include files should be ok and since there are prototype
defs for the Mac OS calls in them that gcc can use, it should be able
to point out most of the potential problems.

I can supply a set of /usr/src/lib/mac/*/*.s that work for a 32 bit/gas
syntax compiler.  If you want them let me know.
