Andi,
Would you mind documenting your general procedure on the wiki?
In particular we have a section on testing builds here:
http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Testing/Builds
We cover `building glibc with installing', but we don't cover
the complicated case of a mixed environment where you need
libraries from the system root because your sysroot is
incomplete.
Cheers,
Carlos.
