You didn't say what kind of problems you ran into.  Without details, we 
can't really help.

I can say that, historically, the LynxOS support in FSF gcc has been 
poor, and unlikely to be usuable without some work.  We stopped 
supporting gcc-3.2.x a long time ago, so we aren't going to do anything 
to fix problems with it.

If you are using a gcc from someone else that has been modified to 
support LynxOS, then perhaps it should work, but you would have to talk 
to the vendor.  We don't support gcc versions released by others.

On the plus side, there was some LynxOS work done last year.

These patches are in the gcc-4.0.x series.  So if you have LynxOS 4.0, 
then gcc-4.0.2 should work for you.
