Subject: [U-Boot-Users] Problems with binutils 2.15

I've been playing around trying to get U-Boot 1.1.1 (and previous
versions) to build with the following toolchain:
- binutils 2.15
- gcc 3.3.2
- glibc 2.3.2

This toolchain was built for a PPC target with no particular CPU
flags or CPU patches. Here's what I'm doing:
$ cd u-boot-1.1.1
$ make TQM860L_config
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-

Now, this starts to build and goes far enough, but somehow LD
actually seg faults somewhere down the line. I've copied the
command line that fails in Make directly to the command line and
I get this (the output is somewhat edited for the form, but it's
all there):
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Segmentation fault
----------------------------------------------------------------------

If run from the makefile, this would come right after:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
...
a - usb_kbd.o
a - usb_storage.o
a - virtex2.o
a - xilinx.o
a - circbuf.o
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/.../u-boot-1.1.1/common'
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried 0.4.0 and 1.0.0 and get very similar behavior.

Anyone see this before?
