I am writing a gui app in another language that needs the gcc compiler
embedded into it (or at least along for the ride), in case the user
doesn't have it on their system.
What's the smallest size I can squeeze gcc down to and how would I go
about compiling it in such a way?
I'm on an OS X box with gcc 3.x installed already. I'll probably be
creating a disk image and installing the little gcc into it.
Direct help would be great, but pointing me to a helpful article(s)
would be great too.
Thanks.
