Why did I then successfully manage to make an i386->alpha crosscompiler?
It was egcs-1.1.2 back then I think, but it should still work.

Maybe another hint, I always had to set the path to the newly installed
cross-binutils in order to make a cross-compiler (If you did this and
I overlooked this, sorry)

So e.g. cd binutils; ./configure --prefix=/opt/cross && make && make
install
       cd gcc; ./configure --prefix=/opt/cross
        PATH=/opt/cross/bin:$PATH make cross
or similar.

regards,
chris
