Ooops, and I thought my patch queue was empty :-). This needs to be changed 
for gcc-2.95 from 2.8.1.0.23 to 2.9.1.0.23, but I still prefer one of the 
snapshots on PPC. I think hjl plans to do a 2.9.1.0.24+x based on a 
binutils snapshot as soon as the ARM stuff is integrated.

Peter, you should be able to download the DRR1 SRPM 
(binutils-2.9.1.0.990418-1c.src.rpm) from ftp.linuxppc.org and build it on 
your machine.
