oh yes, sorry for not saying this earlier...
it should build sco-sysv 3.2 executables and i have this 'machine' here 
beside me, so i copied the /usr/lib to linux:/tmp/lib
and the /usr/include to linux:/tmp/include 

i compiled binutils with
../binutils/configure --target=i386-sysv --prefix=/bar
make all install
and -- again - no problems

but now i get another gcc error (sigh;-) :
../gcc/configure --target=i386-sysv --prefix=/bar -v 
--with-headers=/tmp/include --with-libs=/tmp/lib --enable-languages=c
make all-gcc install-gcc

then i crawled the mailinglist-archive again and found this:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc/2000-q2/msg00195.html

i tried it out, with the link to the newlib/include thing and other configure 
options but it stopped with the same complaining about missing libgcc1.a

can i claim your help again?
thx,
flo
