Hi folks, what would be the (theoretical) procedure for getting 3.3 to build
a cross compiler on Linux that targets MingW? I'm just looking for a couple
of sentences here.

Ranjit's page, which describes how to build 3.2, talks about two sets of patches:

- The MingW patches to GCC and binutils
- Ranjit's patches for GCJ

If I get GCC 3.3 from CVS, do I need to modify the both sets of patches? I
think the answer is no for the second set, because I already see Ranjit's
patches (i.e. Win32 Process) in CVS. But I am still not completely clear on
this. Again, I'm only looking for a couple of sentences here.

Thanks.
