Hello,

I don't know in which packaging stage you are regarding SAM3 Cortex M3, but you 
might consider the possibility of using compilers already packed for ARM 
processors that you can find in http://forja.rediris.es/frs/?group_id=844
I did it some time ago focused on iMote2, but they should be able to generate 
code for any ARM processor. They integrate binutils and newlib as well so that 
no other packaging would be necessary from Thomas or Razvan regarding 
debian-based systems.

Cheers,

Nelson
