Hi Sudeep,

almost certainly gm2 can be configured as a cross compiler for the
68k.  I've done this for an ATMega8 with the previous release of gm2
grafted on gcc-4.1.2 - although normal caveat (the compiler is in
development).  If your code uses the pim [234] language dialect then
you should be pretty safe.  You could try using the source available
here:

http://floppsie.comp.glam.ac.uk/Glamorgan/gaius/web/gm2-avr.html

apt-get source gm2-avr

and modifying the debian package and configure arguments to build a
68k based cross compiler.  After that I'd try upgrading the compiler
from the gm2 CVS and retrying the configure.  Hope this helps,

regards,
Gaius
