Hi,

I'am just taking over a project at work which
uses an embedded ARM CPU. I'am told its an ARM 9 TDMI,
also known as an ARM 922. Anyone any idea if I could
cross compile using the Plan9 arm compiler? Is the
arm7 (the compiler) a subset of the arm9?

Also this project uses position independant code & data
and ELF files, doing a link/load on program startup. I could
code aout2elf quite easily but does

If the compiler is a non-starter then I may have a go at
bringing the arm7 GCC crosscompiler up on the back
of dhogs native GCC.

I know the better solution is to modify the arm9 compiler
but I am still up to my eyes in CIFS in my spare time so
I cannot waste work time on playing plan9 compilers (shame).
