14 :-)))))))) Yes it is. I tested it.
15 I used
16 CHOST=i686-pc-linux-gnu
17 CFLAGS=-O2 -mpentiumpro -march=pentiumpro
18
19 I builded bison,flex and getext.
20 Then I was ready for binutils/gcc.
21
22 If I add bison,flex and gettext to sys-build we can imediately start building
23 binutils/gcc for the desired host.

36 I think it's better to wait for gcc-2.95.3. We used pgcc last year and had troubles
37 with a few packages.
38 But that time we compiled everything with -O6. :-)
39 If you want, make a modified package and post it here, we add it to the cvs-tree
40 and you can test how it works.
