Got latest version...

...using these settings I get this result. It is a result of using
iwmxxt target because I got the same error when I tried different
combinations of xscale/iwmmxt.

-------------------------------

That is, the GCC is not at some point built. Other tools are though:

> ls -1 build_arm/staging_dir/usr/bin
rm-linux-uclibc-addr2line
arm-linux-uclibc-ar
arm-linux-uclibc-as
arm-linux-uclibc-c++filt
arm-linux-uclibc-gprof
arm-linux-uclibc-ld
arm-linux-uclibc-nm
arm-linux-uclibc-objcopy
arm-linux-uclibc-objdump
arm-linux-uclibc-ranlib
arm-linux-uclibc-readelf
arm-linux-uclibc-size
arm-linux-uclibc-strings
arm-linux-uclibc-strip

Any suggesttions why gcc crosscompiler at some point isn't available?

PH
