Thanks, Kai. Where do I get tools.zip? I would have thought the zip
file would be in the tarball. But after I untarred gcc-4.4.0.tar, I
told the workstation to search the whole hard disk for tools.zip. It
couldn't find that file. Now I'm waiting for building to end
abnoramally, so I can show everybody part of the typescript file the
machine is creating.
