DOS hosted, Linux target.



I'm going to be in need of a DOS -> Linux cross compiler in the near
future, so I'm trying to do my homework...  

The FAQ (ftp://ftp.cygnus.com:/pub/embedded/crossgcc/FAQ) mentions two
methods for building such a thing -- either use DJGPP, or try a Canadian
cross.  Since I've never attempted anything like this myself, I thought it
best to inquire as to folks' personal experiences.  Would anyone recommend
one method over the other? The Canadian cross method looks like a pain,
would there be any reason to do this when DJGPP is available? 

Most of the cross-compiler Q&A I've seen so far in FAQs, etc., seem to be
about Linux hosted, DOS targetting compilers.  Any tips for trying to go
the other direction?
