Perhaps I'll be able to get away with --target=i386-aout and simply modifying glibc, newlib or uclibc to use Minix's system calls, and it'll all work with minor tweaks like the specs files GCC uses. I'll try it. I'll post my experiences to the GCC developers' list in case others in future find it useful as a starting point to GNU-ify a new system.
