[Freemint-list] gcc 6.2 for Ataris brown edition

[p.slegg at scubadivers.co.uk]

Question.

If a basic command line tool was compiled as m68k ELF for BSD or Linux would it run on
Mint or does it require Mint specific libs to be linked ?

Obviously vm ones wouldn't but just considering a hypothetical statically linked one.
