cross-compiled native compiler: ld can't find crt1.o

[Martin Schaffner <schaffner at gmx dot li>]

I'm trying to compile LFS starting from Mac OS X for my lfs-from-osx 
hint.

I used crosstool (http://kegel.com/crosstool) to create a 
cross-compiler on Mac OS X for powerpc-750-linux-gnu, whose specs file 
I modify to use /tools/lib/ld.so.1 instead of /lib/ld.so.1.
With this cross-compiler, I compiled glibc-2.3.2 (as patched for 
crosstool), gcc-3.3.3 and binutils-2.14 (patched and compiled as in the 
sections "Pass 2" of LFS-5.1.1 plus the host and build configure 
flags).

After starting Linux with init=/tools/bin/bash, the compiler in /tools/ 
can compile a hello world program fine, but it can't link it.

The first problem is that in the arguments to ld, gcc passes crt0.o, 
crt1.o, and crtn.o directly, without any path prefixed, so ld can't 
find them.

The second problem is that even when I modified the ld argument list to 
include the complete path to these files, ld complained that it could 
not find the file for -lgcc. I did not find any file called libgcc.so 
anywhere, but neither is there any on a normal GNU/Linux installation, 
only files gcc-lib/*/*/libgcc.a and libgcc_s.so.

Any help?

Thanks,

Martin Schaffner
