AFAIR it should be possible to build a native GCC 4.2.x with a cross-compiler.
At least that's something I have done when I released the OS4 native build of
GCC 4.2.3 for the OS4 betatesters on the beta-ftp server (see the respective
directory). This was, however, only possible after I adapted the
pex-amigaos.c stuff which was not working until recently. So please grab the
native 4.2.3 version from the FTP and see if it works for you. Perhaps there
might still be some issues with the C++ backend - so please report back.

As soon as I find the time I will build a new set of cross compilers and a new
OS4 native version of 4.2.4 and upload it to the beta-FTP again. I have also
planned to release this version on the sf.net project pages as well if it
proofs to be working as expected.

cheers,
jens

C : Short for "chutzpah", a quality needed before tacling even the more
simplest program with this language. C is also the symbol for the speed of
light, but that has absolutely nothing to do with how quickly one can learn
or use the language.
