Warren,
try:
1) The build status page - if you can find the description of what you want
to build, "click" the "revision number" link - that will take you to the
build message originally posted. If your lucky, the sender described how
they did it.
2) Cross compiling: Big Subject, first question: What build system(s) do you
have available? (If you have an x86 box handy, I can send better details off
list).
3) If I understood your message correctly - your end objective is a native
GCC that will run on the Dec Alpha - FreeBSD system and generate code for
that same system. Correct me if I mis-understood.
4) check the <release_name>/gcc/contrib directory for scripts and information
that might help.
