building an i686 linux-to-m88k svr3 cross-compiler

[Scott Dudley]

here's a message i posted yesterday to gcc@gcc.gnu.org:

    yes, you read right :-)

    my employer is still running svr3 on a number of these old motorola
    m88k systems and i'd like to simplify my job by building a
    cross-compiler. no problems building/installing binutils but when
    building gcc, i get the following for both cpp0 and fix-header targets:

    undefined reference to `target_flags'

    i see target_flags declared in gensupport.c and rtlanal.c.  i'm not
    familiar with the gcc sources.  can someone point me in the right
    direction?

    many thanks!

since then (i had no takers), i simply added a declaration for 
target_flags to cppinit.c to get past this.  i then get the following:
