problem compiling gcc for mips64el

["Nicholas C. Weaver" <nweaver@cs.berkeley.edu>]

	I'm trying to build a cross compiler for 64 bit, little endian
mips elf under linux (mips64el), in preparation for compiling a kernel
for the NEC Vr5000 (A 64 bit mips) cpu.

	I've tried both egcs and gcc-2.8.1 according to the
crosscompilation faq, and both give me the following error, during the
building of libgcc2.a.  Suggestions on how to proceed?:

gmake[1]: Entering directory `/build/mips/build-gcc'
rm -f libgcc2.a
if [ -d . ]; then \
  cd .; \
  rm -f libgcc.a ; \
else true; \
fi
