How about the C compiler in /usr/lib/big?  Is it able to handle gcc?
Not that it really matters of course-- given gcc binaries, gcc can be
used to compile itself, so this would just save a little download time.
Anyone else think it's ironic that Gnu's own philosophy prevents them
from stopping 'Evil Apple' from distributing their software...?
32K buffers?  Someone think that they are still using the 6502? Ack.
