I still don't get it.....A compiler is binary, so its been executed, so what compiled the compiler! And the compiler compiler's in what language was written?

It is not a big deal, but i just find it hard to take it. Maybe its my problem :-/

C compiler to build Sparc/Solaris binaries on Linux

Just that the Subject says. I am looking for a C compiler for Linux x86 that will allow me to compile a C source code file and the resulting binary will be able to run on a Sparc running Solaris. Thanks.
