Can not compile using new PPC cross compiler.

["Brian Szmyd" <brian dot szmyd at adic dot com>]

Hi all,

I've seen this question being asked many times in other mailing lists,
and possibly here. I cannot however find a resolution. I have recently
build a PPC cross tool chain with:

binutils 2.12
gcc 2.95.3
glibc 2.2.4

I got all the tools built using "powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" as my target
platform. I had to patch loop.c from the gcc distro to get it to
compile, but other than that I had no problems. I built these tools
using the following process:

TARGET=powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
PREFIX=/opt/ppcgcc

$ ../sources/binutils-2.12/configure --host=$HOST --target=$TARGET /
--prefix=$PREFIX -v
$ make all install
...
$ ../../sources/gcc-2.95.3/configure --host=$HOST --target=$TARGET /
--prefix=$PREFIX --without-headers --with-newlib -v
$ make all-gcc install-gcc
...
$ CC=powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc ../../sources/glibc-2.2.4/configure /
--prefix=$PREFIX --target=$TARGET --host=$HOST --enable-add-ons /
--with-headers=$PREFIX/$TARGET/include
$ make all
$ make install_root=$PREFIX/$TARGET prefix="" install
...
$ ../../sources/gcc-2.95.3/configure --enable-languages=c --host=$HOST /
--target=$TARGET --prefix=$PREFIX
$ make all install

Everything seemed to compile cleanly, however when I try to compile a
simple "Hello, World!" program, I get the following error:

bszmyd@dn-bszmyd:~/development$ powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -o test
test.c
/lib/libc.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

It appears that ld is trying to link against my native libraries, but I
stumped for a solution. Perhaps I configured one of the tools wrong
above?

Thanks in advance!
