Looks like --enable-targets=m68k-ieee was the cause of all my build problems.
At least I can build the whole toochain if I omit this option. I have not
checked (yet) whether the resulting code actually works on the target,
though.

But I am still somewhat confused. Is it the m68k-ieee target that is no longer
supported or is it the --additional-targets option that causes the problems?
