Yep, I realize that, I was just posting to the list for reference in case
someone else goes this route.  Note, I'm not complaining about the tools,
just trying to share the info.

I'm running with Debian (lenny/stable).
Following is the list of rpms I ran through alien and installed...

rtems-4.10-autoconf-2.63-2.fc10.noarch.rpm
rtems-4.10-automake-1.11-1.fc10.noarch.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-binutils-2.19.1-1.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-cpukit-4.9.99.0.20090206.2-1.fc10.noarch.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-gcc-4.4.0-6.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-gcc-c++-4.4.0-6.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-gdb-6.5-6.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-bfin-rtems4.10-newlib-1.17.0-39.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-binutils-common-2.19.1-1.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-gcc-common-4.4.0-6.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-gdb-common-6.8.50.20090329-2.fc10.i386.rpm
rtems-4.10-newlib-common-1.17.0-39.fc10.i386.rpm

I guess my next step, as suggested by Daron, is to build the
tools on my machine.  Rumor has it that the "testing" version of
Debian supports GLIBC_2.8, but I don't wanna do that.

Thanks,
Ed
