ok. but you definitely are not building gcc 2.95.3 - we've never used that.
gcc 3.0 is the first release for parisc.

I've been using b180 w/parisc-linux as desktop/debian mirror for almost 
a year now. only thing to crash the box was audio driver and test
kernels. But some things are missing that HPUX has: NetMeeting
support (T.120 specifically; GnomeMeeting supports H323), performance.
