Indeed that was the case. As I understand, FreeBSD 3.0-current is
currently in a state of flux (planned transition to ELF), but I will
monitor the situation -- we will get new machines soon to install
more recent snapshots on -- and once the dust has settled and if there
is not activity from the FreeBSD camp itself, I'll give it a try.

BTW, I'd be interested to see who else on this list is using FreeBSD.
Perhaps we could coordinate our egcs efforts somewhat?
