I downloaded crosstool-0.43 and editted the demo-arm.sh to attempt to build gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.1.3.  The host system is an Ubuntu vm.  I had to apt-get bison and a few other things to get this far but it keeps dying here:

1. Use crosstool-ng
2. Do you really want to build gcc 2.95 and glibc 2.1 ? if not then use
some new combination like gcc 4.4.3 and glibc 2.11 if you really want that
old combination then make sure that your build machine has gcc 2.95
installed too because building cross gcc 2.95 with newer gcc may yield
errors.
