Hi,

when I use binutils 2.12.90.0.12 gcc 3.1 will not compile anymore.

The error is:

...
mkdir libgcc
if [ -f stmp-dirs ]; then true; else touch stmp-dirs; fi
/opt/cross/production/build/gcc/gcc/xgcc -B/opt/cross/production/build/gcc/gcc/

Building the toolchain works fine with binutils-2.12.1.

I attach 2 files (the build_mips_toolchain and mipsel-linux.source) which I use to build the tools
from scratch on my linux i586 box.
Any program build with this toolchain cannot be opened with gdb. 

What are the recommended versions of gcc, glibc and gdb?

Many thanks 
	Carsten
