Ok, i prefer them too... ;-) i will try to get one in this week-end, should be running in the next week... ;-)
What is the status or what are your plans of a dedicated crux-ppc mailing list? If we run into any restrictions, I will just rent a cheap root-server somewhere out there. I need that anyway for several projects anytime soon. Just FYI: I am in the process of recompiling (stage 1) a superset of the current crux-x82-2.2 core, the crux-ppc-cvs core with my own (LFS-like) build history for my embedded mpc8540 powerpc CRUXish distro. Currently, it works pretty good. The following packages built fine: root@ecam:/usr/ports/packages$ ls -la -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 406880 Oct 17 20:36 autoconf#2.60-3.pkg.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 236648 Oct 17 20:36

web: http://foo-projects.org/pipermail/lunar-dev/2006-July/005821.html So, I suspect that glibc-2.3.6 on x86 fails to build, too, once binutils is updated to 2.17. (just compiling now...) I'll see to what toolchain versions I'll finally stick. The rest should be considered low-risk. I don't need yaboot and friends, because I boot the kernel out of flash.
