I just brought ftp'ed this gcc and brought it up on my machine running
MINIX 1.5/386, and it seems to work like a champ!  My only question is:
is is possible to get this thing to generate 8088-only code?  Otherwise,
recompiling the MINIX kernel is going to be impossible for me (there are
a few modules that have to be compiled this way because they run in real
mode...)

Thanks!
