simply using the CFLAGS for the correct machine version would be a vast improvement. Iirc the problem with ssh is that it uses OpenSSL which ignores any usefull CFLAGS settings and thus produces unusable code. I got it fixed by making gcc producing m68060 code by default. > I guess as a minimum the gmp configs ought to select the 68000 code in > preference to the 68020 when building for 060. with gmp you can do ./configure (m68060-linux|m68020-linux) and it ought to do the right thing.
