Thank you very much, but I figured out that running the testsuite
will take *days* on a fast 060 machine... Probably twice as much
on a 040.

In the mean time, John Klos has kindly offered an account
on his NetBSD box.  If GCC bootstraps correctly, I'll be
able to carry over my work there.

The host OS shouldn't matter for regression testing of
code generation bugs.
