--with-sysroot required when building 32->64 bit crosstoolchain? (was: building a cross-compiler is hard)

Yes.  It doesn't matter that it's a 32/64-bit cross environment, it's
still a cross environment to a hosted target.  DT_NEEDED are only
searched via -rpath-link and SEARCH_DIR.

You can use --with-sysroot for binutils without using it for GCC.  It's
not necessarily a good idea though.
