Re: Problem of cross-mipsel-compiler GLIBC-2.3.X

[Kumba <kumba@gentoo.org>]

Oddly enough, I followed these basic steps and wound up with a working 
cross-compiler from sparc64 -> mipseb (Sun Blade 100 to mips 
big-endian).  Gcc nor glibc gave me any issues.....However, when I tried 
the same exact steps on i686, glibc complained about libgcc not being 
available, among other things.  It's got me baffled, but I'm not exactly 
complaining.  Currently, it's gcc-3.2.3 (propolice patched) + 
glibc-2.3.2 + binutils-2.13.90.0.20, which it'll get rebuilt for the new 
binutils 2.14.
