  Has anyone compiled gcc2.7.2 + template repository patch for FreeBSD2.1?
I tried compiling binutils2.6 (from my previous experience with
gcc2.7.2 on BSDI2.0, I know that it requires the new gnu linker
because it only understands its output whyen it scans for
unresolved symols ), however, there doesn't appear to be a port
of binutils2.6 to FreeBSD2.1 I tried building it configured for  
netbsd and bsdi however, the resulting linker does not understand
any of the libraries in /usr/lib (neither does the ar, ranlib, nm,
etc utils) New a.out format?

  If you have successfully built gcc2.7.2 (and binutils2.6) with
a working template repository, please send me mail. Thanks.
