It might do, and the PS2 is probably a target worth supporting,
anyway.  Perhaps you could give my toolchain build-and-test script
a whirl?  The script runs on a beefy PC with lots of disk and RAM,
and uses rsh and rcp to run tests on the target.
Alternately, maybe you could hook it up to the net so I can
run a few preliminary tests remotely via ssh?

Thanks,
Dan
