They are very very different from PIC14 and PIC16 and most likely
will not help you in porting gcc to PIC14 and PIC16.
By the way, you can built C30 under Linux. Just check the archive.
According to Microchip, it is not legal to use the library/header files/
linker scripts from the C30 package with the self-built C30 compiler
under Linux.
