    How is this related? For running binaries it is not relevant which
    compiler was used to build the kernel.

    You can do this either (1) by building your own, (2) by replacing the
    old one with Andreas' version at
    ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/people/aj/Current_Toolchain/sparc/,
    or (3) by installing the binaries I am building every night into a
    separate directory. (Just send me a note if you want them.)

    Note that you do (2) at your own risk, as this replaces your old
    compiler with the new release, which might affect other software.
