Error with crosstool-0.28-rc16 host ppc7455 target i686

[Richard Stocker <r_l_s at earthlink dot net>]

I  would like to expedite compiling programs for Gentoo on a Pentium  
III by using distcc and my Mac PowerBook G4.  The Powerbook has a  
867Mhz PowerPC 7455 processor and the OS is 10.2.8.

I downloaded crosstools-0.28-rc16 to the Mac. Running demo.sh, which is  
equivalent to demo-i686.sh since all other targets are commented-out,  
produces the error below. The tools combo is gcc-3.3.2-glibc-2.3.2 to  
match those on Gentoo.

Searching the mail archives, I found an email from Stuart Winter that  
seems to describe a similar problem. If an expert can confirm it is the  
same problem, I will attempt to implement his fix.

Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

Regards, Rick
