While waiting for the mailing-list subscription @ binutils i compiled
them through ;o) just copied one header to my local sources, and it
worked ... *arg* hack, hack...

Now gcc allready bootstraps ;o) i hope things go fine, so thanks for the
quick help / comment ...

For anybody interested: just copy (from the target platform, so
hppa-hpux) from /usr/include/machine/reg.h to the binutils source:
$src/bfd/machine/reg.h. the set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to include
-DHOST_HPPAHPUX and binutils build fine... I have no plan if they
actually *work* too ;o//

Cheers, Markus
