Re: Problem using crosstool building gcc-3.3.2-glibc-2 .3.2 for powerpc-750

Hi Brian,

thanks for your answer. Can I safely ignore the remaining errors (unknown command line option)? In the output of my successfull build of
gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.6 I also found two times this error message, but finally the tool chain succeeded.

Best,
  Stephan
