No, egcs 1.1 doesn't support m68k-elf.  I've got some patches on my web 
page (written by Mark Phillips) for gcc-2.7.2.2 at

    http://home.worldnet.att.net/~jabberwock82/crossgcc/

I've also got some patches for egcs based on Mark's but they haven't 
been tested very thoroughly.  Kai Ruotta (I hope I spelled his name 
right - it was from memory) also had some patches for either gcc or egcs 
(based on Cygnus's stuff, I think - check the list archives for 
details).

Getting the patches into egcs has become a problem.  Last I heard, Mark 
had run into some legal problems assigning the patches to the FSF.  I 
can't submit my patches since they're basically Mark's.  I want to go 
over Mark's and Kai's patches and see what the differences are, and 
maybe make a consolidated patch, but I need to do it on my own time to 
keep my company from getting into the legalities, and I haven't had the 
time yet.
