What to call the SPARC tools 

Cross-development tools in the GNUPro Toolkit are normally installed with names that reflect the target machine, so that you can install more than one set of tools in the same binary directory. The target name, constructed with the ‘--target’ option to configure, is used as a prefix to the program name. For example, the compiler for the SPARC (called simply gcc in native configurations) is called by sparc-aout-gcc or sparc-coff-gcc, depending on which configuration you have installed.

The SPARC-configured gdb is called, depending on which configuration you have installed, by sparc-aout-gdb or sparc-coff-gdb.

The compiler for the Fujitsu SPARClite is called by sparclite-aout-gcc or sparclite-coff-gcc, depending on which configuration you have installed.

The SPARClite-configured gdb is called by sparclite-aout-gdb or sparclite-coff-gdb.

For DOS-hosted toolchains, the tools are simply called by their standard names, such as gcc, gdb, etc. 0
