Unless he is using a modfied gcrt1.S file, all you need is to update
the configure.in file and merge the io*.h file.

If he modified the gcrt1.S file, it would be best to see if the
changes can be merged in with the "one true" gcrt1.S file (I would
think).

If he need a special linker script, that would probably need to go
into binutils.

BTW: messages like this should go to the dev list since it's general
info and I'm not the formost expert on this stuff.
