Doesn't gfortran build as cross?  I haven't tried (I should),
but if it does (it should), it must be all gcc-2.95-compatible
code -- it probably should even be if it doesn't build as cross. ;-)

This does *not* include its runtime (not front-end requisite)
libraries, but that's obvious.

Maybe it's all sorted out now and this is just a nagging reminder.
