(PR excerpt) — Microcross today released GNU X-Tools v3.2 PowerPC Toolsuite, which includes support for AltiVec-enabled PowerPCs as well as all other variants. This GNU distribution is the latest stable toolsuite based on GNU GCC v3.2.

The GNU X-Tools product is based on the standard distribution of GNU tools, which support more hosts and target processors than any embedded development toolsuite in existence. Moreover, the GNU tools offer more cost savings per feature than any toolchain available on the commercial market. Their popularity is derived from years of maturity and usage on every viable (and some not so viable) host operating system in existence over the past 15 years.
