Doubtful. You can probably sup src/gnu/usr.bin/egcs and src/gnu/lib, then
do the "make includes && make depend && make && make install" cycle first
in egcs, and then in lib.

However to avoid the shared library bugs you probably want

	LDSTATIC=-static
	NOPIC=1

in /etc/mk.conf.

I think this is because Mark B. was doing a lot of integrations (like EBSA285
and CATS support, turning on WSCONS, UVM, etc.) and Todd V. was converting it
to use EGCS, which really shook things up. I'm not sure if PIC is working in
EGCS yet, but it shouldn't be long now.
