While I was there I "updated to 4.3.3 and a 4.4.0 snapshot (20090216).

The i386,powerpc and sparc compilers are biarch and seem to build the 32/64 kernels appropriately. I'm building i386 hosted compiiler ATM and I'll uplaod them when done. Looking at the 4.3.3 compilers, asside from ia64 what arches are missing? > Several people have made suggestions but I don't think I've yet seen > anything which is download-and-go.

These should all be relocatable, in that you can wack them anywhere (/opt/cross for me) and set your CROSS_COMPILE var and go. For what it's worth these compilers were built with something derrived from the buildall scripts by Segher (http://git.infradead.org/users/segher/buildall.git) Thanks Segher!
