Hi Janis,

I was wondering if you could utilize your hunting method with a cross
compiler.  If a given regression was e.g. an ICE and reproducable when
targetting the appropriate platform, if you were supplied with the .i
file and appropriate flags, then I'm thinking it should be possible.

If so, would you be able to track down the critical patch point for
some of the sparc regressions I've filed?

I.e. PRs 7227, 7794, 7796, perhaps more filed elsewhere by others.  I
can supply the specific info and .i file if the PRs aren't enough.

I think this would be a tremendously valuable addition to your already
helpful hunting.

		Thanks,
