You didn't mention whether you're targeting newlib or glibc,
or show how you configured gcc, so I'll guess you intend to use glibc.

Sadly, to compile gcc-3.3 to work with glibc, you need the glibc
headers -- even when compiling the bootstrap gcc.  In other words,
you need bootstrap glibc headers to build the bootstrap gcc.

Have a look at http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/current/crosstool.sh
It shows how to do it.
In fact, have a look at all of http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/
It even makes it "easy" to run the gcc and glibc regression tests remotely.
