RE: Crossgcc for PIC30 anyone?

["Robert Jenkins" <raj at jrw dot co dot uk>]

Hi,

I saw the source files on the Microchip site a couple of days ago &
downloaded them. 
It was then through searching for an up-to-date Windows version of GCC that
I found MinGW, MSYS & the various mailing lists.

After minor problems getting bison to work with mingw, I have a complete but
so far untested PIC30 compiler.
If my notes from working through this as a complete beginner with MinGW are
of use to others, I'd be happy to post them.


A couple of questions:

The only place I can find any mention of the pic30 in the GCC source is in
the gcc/config/pic30 directory. 
Is this the only place the target-specific mods exist? If so, presumably
this directory could be added to a newer source tree?
(The one it's included in looks to be the first 3.3 release).

Also, I'm trying to build the assembler & linker that go with the compiler.
That source includes readline, which won't compile as it needs sgtty.h
Having searched by every combination I can think of, the only results that
appeart to be relevent are from other people having compile problems. (One
mentioned building readline seperately from a readline V2.x source, but
again the current V4.x source won't build without sgtty.h) 
I guess it could also be changes over the mingw releases.

Any solutions appreciated! 


Robert Jenkins.
