The wiki page for compiling is out of date

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Could someone please update the wiki page with information on compiling,
including what to do for both devkitppc r17 users and devkitppc r18 users.
 Particularly what libraries now have to be built when starting from a
scratch install of either devkit revision.

I second this. I'm trying to compile everything from scratch (rev 477) with 
devkitppc
r18 and getting weird errors such as:

I don't understand the cause of this last error as LIBDI_MAX_RETRIES is defined 
in
<di/di.h> which is being loaded by the compiler (I verified this with -E) and 
the
typedefs and stuff in that file are being defined with no problems.

yes a quick update for which versions of which libraries would be nice, or at 
least
update the trunk with versions that compile

Instructions on devkitpro r17 is no longer needed, but as well as updating the
compiling page it would be nice if the libraries that do need compiled used the 
new
powerpc-eabi tools, as well as, installing to their portlibs folder.
