Hi,
I've build a cross gcc (x86/linux -> ppc/vxworks).
I was wondering how I could build a native gcc that run under vxWorks using my cross compiler ?

This is not possible. The VxWorks operating system does not provide an environment in which the compiler can run. You have to use cross compilers.

Could you tell me more about the missing features or point me to a place
where I could find such information ?
Do you think it could be possible to implement them ?

you need a unix-like operating system. Your best bet to discover exactly what is to try and build a vx-works hosted compiler. It'll fall over during building due to missing OS functions. Then it's a small matter of implementing and repeating.

I can't help wondering _why_ you want to do this.
