Re: Building Glibc

I am trying to build the newest gcc as my powerpc-cross-compiler now
(without installing the new gcc as my native compiler;is this really
necessary?), but I have still problems with the configure options:

--with-headers and
--with-libs
All I have untill now is the cross-compiled kernel and it's header
files.  Is it right to set --with-headers to this dir?
What to do with -with-libs?
Got the message: 
cant find stdlib.h
cant find unistd.h

	Regards

I have an debian system so I upgraded my gcc to 2.95.2 and binutils to
2.9.5 just by inserting the appropriate packages on the system and
resolving conflicts/dependencies.
That was necessary (I think) to build the cross compiler (version 2.95.2
also) and the cross binutils (also version 2.9.5). Now I had the
tools to build the glibc-2.1.2 for the ppc.

So I ended up installing the latest gcc and binutils in order to compile
the latest cross-gcc and glibc.

Check the documentation for glibc (if you havent allready) it mentions the
minimum version requirements for all the tools.

GNU assembler version 2.9.1, using BFD version 2.9.1.0.25
If this is what you mean, how can I get the version 2.9.5?
Do I have to install a new compiler?

And of course what binutils. That was a stumbling block for me, i.e. if

is glibc 2.1.2. Buildin glibc 2.1.2 on ppc requieres binutils later than
version (or equal) 2.9.4.
I used 2.9.5 with success.

Hello,

I get the following linker error (current directory: elf):
../libc_pic.a(init-first.os): In function '_dl_start':

dl-allobjs.os(.text0x0): first defined here Warning: size of symbol
'_dl_start' changed from 1576 to 16 in init-first.os collect2: ld
returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [librtld.os] Error 1 make: ***

What can I do? Are there special linker/compiler options?

What version of glibc are you using?
How did you configure glibc?
What make command line (s) did you use?

I'd also chime in with,
What version of the compiler are you using?
