You cannot use this gcc for expand muLinux, getting tgz around the net. ONLY hello-world programs, math programs, lexycal analizers and kernel modules compile well.
ADDON #5: TCL Third-part addon, here	TCL addon An add-on floppy for muLinux to add a healthy mix of application programs written in Tcl/Tk. Requires the muLinux X11 add-on, as most Tcl programs included are X11 based. Author: Tom Poindexter, tpoindex@nyx.net.
