I obtained arm-linux-gcc 3.3.2 (misslabeled as 3.3.3) as a
semi-compiled binary from CompuLab
(http://www.compulab.co.il/armgx-developer.htm -> Operating Systems ->
Linux - cross compilation tools chain for GCC 3.3.3). which includes 
arm-linux-gcc and arm-linux-gcj.  I say semicompiled because
arm-linux-gcc works just by unzipping/untarring the file.  However
libjava is not compiled and I can't get it to compile for the reasons
I previously mentioned and thus arm-linux-gcj does not work (can't
find java.lang).  However, since there is no master makefile availible
in the file (as it's already compiled for the most part), I can't
recompile the whole package.  I guess I could try and obtain the
arm-linux-gcj 3.3.x tools source elsewere and compile it, I'm just
afraid I'll be missing any patches or modifications to the toolchain
neccissary for Compulab hardware.  Any ideas?  I guess I could try an
arm-linux-gcc 3.3.2 chain (including gcc and gcj) from elsewhere. 
Anyone know where I could obtain the source from?
Thanks.
