Failure is always an option here at the NCommander Hack Labs, but sometimes, I get an idea so bad, the only way I can exercise it is to try it. This where I had the idea of trying to build a Windows to Solaris 7 cross-compiler. Honestly, this is a bad idea on so many levels, but I honestly just need to try it.
In this case, I'm taking a page from neozeed of VirtuallyFun fame, and trying to make a weird cross-compiler from Windows 10, to a platform 22 years its junior. This probably a very bad idea, but lets' go. We're going to be using Binutils 2.21, GCC 4.5, and as much duck tape as it takes to make it happen.
Failure is very much an option, so fingers crossed, we'll end up with something very nifty. If not, maybe we'll end up with everything in tears. Either way, we'll have fun doing it.
Building a cross-compiler involves having a native compiler (which comes from MSYS in this case), locating the core system files for Solaris 7, and hoping the amount of duct tape that we're keeps the entire system in one piece.
