	As should be mentioned somewhere, you must get not only the source
distribution or the diffs, but must also take the binary distribution of
gcc 1.35 (gcc-1.35.aux.bin.Z).  Put the appropriate files in /usr/local/bin
and /usr/local/gnu, make sure /usr/local/bin is on your path, and compile
with CC=gcc.  I'll make sure there is a README.gcc.aux that describes all
this.
