As far as I know a cross-assembler that targets multiple cpu's is called a
Meta-Assembler, I know of a book on these, just gotta remember the title.
I will have to search a bit...


There is a Canadian company called Universal Cross-Assemblers that has a
meta-assembler, phone (506) 847-0681, they list a large number of targets
(not 68030, 80386) but my fact sheet is a year old and they say that it's
easy to make new tables for the assembler and that they include directions
for that task.


Hope this helps.
