gcc/g++ binaries

I put copies of gnu gcc, g++, gas, libg++ and gdb unix/386
binaries on mildred.lerc.nasa.gov for anonymous ftp consumption.
These were built under intel sysV release 3.2/2.1.
The gcc is not the newest (1.37.1) but I don't think the incremental
changes have been much since then.  g++/libg++ is 1.37 and
gdb is 3.5.

They have had the coff patches applied so they can be linked
with good old unencapsulated system V coff libraries.

The executables were linked with libc_s.  This wasn't much of a win
with these large programs - I might relink them without the
shared lib.  All were stripped to save space.  This version of g++
uses the regular unix loader and the g++.ifile hack.

gcc and g++ both require gcc-as - they won't work with as(1).
gcc-as is bundled with gcc.  g++ also needs gcc-cpp which is part of gcc.
You will need gdb for debugging stuff compiled by these
critters - sdb doesn't work.

The g++ library passed all the tests except test0, tRational, and
tRandom.  test0 required dynamic loading, tRational failed at the end of
the test when a destructor tried to free an illegal address, and
tRandom generated subtly different random numbers occasionally.
I will track down and fix these errors someday (unless the version 2
stuff comes out first).

These were set up to be installed in the usual place (/usr/local).

The address is mildred.lerc.nasa.gov (139.88.30.61). The files are
in pub/unix386.gnu.
