Sorry in advance if I am annoying.

I am looking to rebuild gcc-3.3 64bits to rebuild the last kernel 2.4 to
conitnue my investigation about smp(64bits) [which failled to boot on a N4000
when compile d with gcc-3.2 get from unofficial-debs].

To do I download the very last src from Matthias Klose who advise me to my
question:

I have a look but it is not clear to me; can you help me in more details?
(ps: I already install the last Matthias gcc-3.3 dpkg 32bits;
according to your <http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/parisc-linux/2003-February/019170.html>
it is a prerequisite)

Thanks in advance,
    Joel
