	You know, there is a file on sun-lamp called gcc-2.4.5-aout-all.tar.gz
or some long thing like that.  It contains all the sources and object and
binaries for gcc2 already.  All you have to do is stick it somewhere, make
install, and there you go.  (i haven't actually done this, but chris assures
me that it will work)
	for some oblique reason he also told me i shouldn't install gcc2 
unless i intended to keep the sources around.  why?  i dunno, maybe casue
it hasn't been tested as thouroughly as gcc 1.39?
