At least one fellow is building parts of it via djgpp... the current djgpp
defaults to ELF, but it's basically a GNU ld which can be switched back to
a.out. I'm not aware of any other particular problems using cross
tools--just make sure you pick the right text/data addresses. For kernel
this is text @ 1 meg, data immediately following. For user programs, text
is at 0x1020 (a.out header at 0x1000), with data at first 4 meg boundary
above and of text.

2.x GNU ld with its load maps makes this easy to do.
