Thanks for the rapid response. At least the solution is clear. Of
course, I will be happy to try the new tools out.

You should find some shell scripts on snitch in the base of the
toolchains build directory hierarchy which will help with
building/packaging sourceware toolchains. They will need minor tweaking
for an "sh-elf only" spin.

Similarly, there are scripts on mug for building/packaging sourceware
toolchains in the Cygwin /gnutools directory hierarchy.

I could offer to build the revised sh-elf toolchains here, but it does
seem preferable to use the same hosts for building all the toolchains to
ensure consistency.
