Can't you configure GCC so that it produces 68000 code?  A quick glance at
the config files suggests that it can configured to do so.

I have an SBC application that has been developed entirely on a Sun 3 running
Sun OS 3.someting .  I use GCC to create 68020 code, and normal Sun AS and LD
to assemble and link.  Of course, I supply my own libraries and include files
so as not to use Sun's.

If your question is "Can I develop prommable code on a Sun", the answer is "yes".
If your question is "Can I generate 68000 code", the answer is "GCC looks like
it will".
