xstormy16 - how do you build this and some info?

[spr03]

Hi,
 
I'm new to building cross compilers, and I'm trying to 
understand how they work. I have noticed that there is a 
cross compiler called the xstormy16 that has been ported in 
gcc. I was wondering if anyone knows how to build this 
compiler (the steps that I have to carry out to build it)?
 
Also when I have explored the binutils package I have found 
associated files with most of the ports listed in the gcc 
package. However, I cant find any files associated with the 
xstormy16 architecture in the binutils - does this mean that 
the assembler and linker being used have not been created 
for the xstromy16, and instead they are using a generic set 
of utils? I have found references to it in the config file 
but unsure what assembler and linker it uses because I can't 
seem to find any unique files created for it.
 
Thankyou very much for your feedback.
