Just FYI, I've used 2.95.3 successfully to (cross-) compile dreamcast
kernels and networting appears to work fine.
Maybe the problem was in the network card driver as I'm using my
hacked driver for the Lan Adapter (hit300) not the bba.

Last time I tried (cross-) building a snapshot the error was a missing
directory in src/gnu/lib/libbfd/arch/. Is this already fixed?
