That's not a good sign...

Ok.  I tryed with a 981122 snapshot of egcs, and that didn't work so
good, but the 111pre snapshot was great (1.1b hadn't been hacked to
produce ELF executables under FreeBSD, as far as I know).  I'll try it
under BSD/OS later this week, I think I have 1.1b there.  I think.

P.S. is the gcc incompatability mentioned in the release notes
somewhere? I couldn't find it, and I think it would be a good idea
for it to be there somewhere.
