OK here is where I get all confused. I am building a gcc in order to use 
that gcc to build m68k-elf programs. So when I am building the gcc, my 
target *should* be i686-pc-cygwin, correct? Because this gcc that I am 
building will *run* on my Cygwin PC.

I have a process which I worked out which I am trying to update. This 
worked for binutils 2.15 and gcc 3.4.2. I just want to update it to the 
current tools, and I am getting these errors.

You can see the old process at
