Thanks for tracking this down!

I will try with glibc-2.8 and see if that works. If it does, then I
will try to find a fix for glibc-2.7

The reason I want to use glibc-2.7 is that I am targetting an embedded
Linux environment that already uses glibc-2.7, so I wanted to closely
replicate that in my toolchain.

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 using the CD image I downloaded from
ubuntu.com. I applied all the default patches it suggests after the
installation via its GUI package tool.

I then installed the following additional packages: gawk make bison
flex makeinfo texi2html texinfo automake libtool cvs curl
libncurses5-dev g++

I downloaded crosstool-ng 1.9.0, and configured it to build:

- gcc 4.2.4
- libc 2.7
- kernel 2.6.24.7
- target ARM, with the following CPU flag arm926ej-s

I started off from an existing ARM configuration for crosstool-ng, as
outlined in my original e-mail.

This is all running on a standard PC, with and AMD Athlon X2 processor.

Let me know if I can provide additional information on my setup.

Razvan.
