Cross-development utilities: ar, as, gasp, gprof, ld, nm, objcopy,
objdump, ranlib, size, strings, strip. These utilities are needed
whenever you want to compile a program or a kernel. This package
differs from the normal SUSE binutils package in that it is designed to
cross-compile from whatever platform SUSE Linux is running on to 64-bit
S/390 targets. This can be handy even if you are running on a 64-bit
S/390 development platform, because it decouples the host tools from
your embedded tools.
