newlib-1.8.0 and ppc-rtems-eabi

[Peter Barada]

When I try to configure for ppc-rtems-eabi, the build of newlib dies
with:

running /bin/sh ./configure  --host=ppc-rtems-eabi --build=i586-linux-gnu --enable-multilib --with-cross-host=i586-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr/local/wave --exec-prefix=/usr/local/wave/ppc --program-prefix=ppc_ --nfp --with-target-subdir=ppc-rtems-eabi --cache-file=.././config.cache --srcdir=.

Anybody actually try to build this configuration?
