Olaf, in the LINUXLIBC6 configuration, try putting --32 on the as/gas invocations.<BR>
You mentioned --32 on cm3, but I wonder if you meant -m32 on cm3.<BR>
cm3 -m32 <BR>
as --32 <BR>
<BR>
or check the man pages or help. They aren't consistent, for more reasons than shown here (e.g. MIPS has -mabi64, and I think AIX has something else, and HP-UX gcc supports none of these -- no bi-arch support).<BR>
<BR>

Using any current system should be plenty easy too.<BR>
e.g. the distributions I put up. :)<BR>
<BR>
AMD64_LINUX should be a good starting point, but I haven't tried it in a bit.<BR>
<BR>
I should be able to build a current LINUXLIBC6 very very soon.<BR>
I guess I can install FreeBSD 7.1..which I'd been meaning to anyway to test a switch to the "new" Unix *.i3 files.<BR>
<BR>
I'll be using python/make-dist.py though.<BR>
I do need to get more packages into it though, e.g. cm3ide and m3gdb.<BR>
