gcc 1.33 compiled and working fine on UNIX pc/3B1

After all the problems I had compiling gcc 1.32 on my UNIX pc, I decided
to ftp the diffs from prep.mit.edu for 1.32->1.33.  I ran them through
patch, upgrading my 1.32 to 1.33.  After that chugged along for quite
some time, I started the "make" ... 

The compiler compiled flawlessly with the stock UNIX pc compiler (except
that I am already running the gnu-cpp (C Preprocessor) that will handle
the high amount of #defines that the GNU C compiler requires).  Then
I recompiled the GNU C compiler with the compiled version of the compiler.
This compiled up fine as well!  I was amazed .. no errors.  Maybe we're
finally at a "stable version" of this compiler.

I set up a /usr/gnu directory subsystem, and the gnu programs are compiled
with shared libraries (with Alex's -shlib command line argument) and are 
stripped.  Here are the sizes:

   1 drwxr-xr-x  3 gnu     gnu         128 Feb  6 23:57 lib

   1 drwxr-xr-x  3 gnu     gnu         128 Feb  6 23:57 .
   1 drwxr-xr-x  4 gnu     gnu          64 Jan 26 21:11 ..
  13 -rw-r--r--  1 gnu     gnu        6474 Jan 26 21:11 bison.hairy
  30 -rw-r--r--  1 gnu     gnu       15022 Jan 26 21:11 bison.simple
 934 -rwxr-xr-x  1 gnu     gnu      478172 Feb  7 00:13 gcc-cc1
  65 -rwxr-xr-x  1 gnu     gnu       33232 Feb  7 00:13 gcc-cpp
  36 -rw-r--r--  1 gnu     gnu       18030 Feb  7 00:12 gcc-gnulib

The gcc compiler definately generates better code than the UNIX pc stock
compiler.  We'll see how it works here!
