4 Dan was very helpfull and willing to help when I build my first toolchains.
5 I owe him one. Thank you Dan!
6 Some crosstool-NG scripts have code snippets coming almost as-is from the
9 And in order of appearance on the crossgcc ML:
11 Allan CLARK for his investigations on building toolchains on MacOS-X.
12 Allan made extensive tests of the first alpha of crosstool-NG on his
13 MacOS-X, and unveiled some bash-2.05 weirdness.
