Yes, I understand what you mean, but I searched quite a bit around and 
found that people were able to build working cross-compilers for this 
specific architecture with the procedure I described (unfortunately, I 
haven't the links on-hand now). However, they didn't encounter these 
specific errors while building the compilers. So, I thought that I might 
get some help on this issue, even though this is a hack.
