Hi,

Some time ago I was able to build my own non-working gcc toolchain for
the 68000 but in the end, after exchanging some mails I've found out
that support for the 68000 core was 'removed' since gcc >= 4.3
(I think Greg might remember this discussion)

I've filled up a bug report (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53386)

I Don't know if the same was done for the CPU32 core but you better
find out before waiting time like I did.

At the moment I'm still using gcc 4.2.x

Regards,
Luis
