egcs-1.1.2 already supported arm-coff, so you don't have to rewrite
that. just use:

--->8---
configure --target=arm-coff --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld
--------

and it will generate a suitable Makefile for you.  Use 'make cross'
to compile just c and c++ cross-compiler.

See the files under egcs-1.1.2/INSTALL for your information.

NOTE: you might need to install binutil if you haven't, check the
ftp-site for that.
