Many thanks go to Kai and Jurriaan for their help. Once I changed my target to i386-linux-gnulibc1 and used the lib-5.4.46 libraries the compiler built fine. I did need newlib to get one-tree-1.5.sh to work, but newlib was not necessary (and would not work) for the build. I did need to grab some header files and libgcc1.a from a pc running linux. The linker error indeed seems to have been from having a wildcard in my target name.
