See below.

You need a gnu unzip (but see below first)

Not quite. These are the includes to libstdc++ (a standard C++ lib, as
the name suggests). You would either need glibc headers and binary or
original Solaris libc headers and binary. Try glibc first. Should be
easy to get. Start with the source code. Use the includes first as
stated in my previous post and build libc when you've obtained your
cross-compiler. It may be necessary to do the steps in the following
order.
	1. unpack glibc
	2. configure glibc, regarding the target and crosscompiler (which is
	not there at the moment.)
	3. unpack gcc
	4. configure gcc (target, headers)
	5. make and install gcc
	6. make and install glibc


When compiling for the target you will need the libc.a and build
everything without shared objects. I would see these things as next
steps, when you have the static build of software working.

Regards,
