GNU is very POSIX oriented, so you need the appropriate tools (Bash, Gawk, Grep, Make, CoreUtils) just to try to build almost anything. It's not impossible, but it's definitely not easy to bootstrap all of that. I've built GCC 2.7.2.3 fairly easily before in pure DOS, but I never tried the (SFN friendly?) BinUtils 2.9.5. Juan showed that libc is fairly easy to build, but I haven't done a lot of that. 2.7.2.3 can build later versions (2.95), allegedly, maybe even 3.4.x (K&R support?). It's not totally hopeless, and I'd even go so far as to say I could (almost) be helpful (for once!). :-) But I'm not sure how easy it will be overall. I'm definitely interested, at least passively, but I don't have the energy to rebuild everything myself! But if you have a specific app you're stuck on, feel free to ask questions (not that I'm an expert, but it's certainly far from impossible).
