ok, I got 2.0.4 working for m68k-linux, not very hard.
Speed is quite impressive, fib is faster than gcc code ?!
One thing that I need to verify is the interaction of the native
compiler and the strange m68k-linux ABI which is different from
SUN or BSD. The unusual part of m68k-linux ABI is that functions
returning pointer return their value in register a0, while integer
types are retuned in d0.
How does the code generated by the native compiler interact
with c-ABI functions?
