ld giving problems when trying to build a cross-compiler.

[Richard Lefebvre]

I tried that too but it didn/t work, basically configure of binutils
just copied everything to /opt/cross-alpha/$TARGET/lib. But I finally
found the problem (which I was sure I had check before) libc.so
comming from the RPMS is a text file which paths to libc.so.6.1
I edited it and now the cross-compiler works.

Thank you for your help.
