Build error: link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES

[Danny Gale <Daniel dot Gale at coloradoengineeringinc dot com>]

Hi all,

I've duplicated the 64-bit powerpc build listed on the website, 
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu. I'm now trying to build specifically for a 
Freescale processor using the e6500 core, powerpc64-e6500-linux-gnu. 
Their SDK was built using Yocto and bitbake -- the powers that be have 
decided it needs to be converted to a Crosstool-NG based build for our 
use. I'm running into some trouble.

The Freescale SDK in question is here 
(http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=SDKLINUX&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tools_Tab) 
. I've been working with v1.4, though I see now they've released v1.5. 
I've brought over their patches from the Yocto build tree and 
Crosstool-NG is configured to use the same versions of the various 
packages that Freescale used. While building pass-1 gcc with 
Crosstool-NG, the build fails with: configure: error: Link tests are not 
allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES .

I found and tried a couple of fixes for this, but none of them have 
resolved the problem: removing optimization for size on the libraries, 
not compiling for c++ support, not statically linking libstdc++. What 
else can cause this and how can it be resolved?

I've attached both my config file and the tail of the log file in case 
that will help in diagnosis. Note that multilib is enabled because 
Freescale says it's required for building u-boot

Thanks for your help,
Danny
