Speaking of cross-compilers ... how can I set up a C/C++ compiler on IRIX to
compile Linux-oriented source and produce i386/Linux binaries?  Watching my
son's laptop grovel through some big Linux compilations is pretty painful.
And, of course, setting this up on the Challenge would be a good reason to
have the thing!
