Problem building a cross-gcc for arm target

[Yeong Jiun How]

Hi,

I have just successfully building the crossGCC for ARM, and here
are the procedures. Hope this can help you.

1. download the tar.gz version of GCC source version 2.95.2 in /src/gcc

2. cd /src/gcc 
3. gunzip -vf <source>.tar.gz 
4. tar -xvf <source>.tar 
5. download gcc patch <ecos-gcc-2952.pat> to support eCos from

http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/tools/win-arm-elf. html
to /src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2 
6. cd /src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2 
7. tr -d '\r' < ecos-gcc-2952.pat | patch -p0 
8. mkdir /tmp/build/gcc 
9. cd /tmp/build/gcc 
10. mkdir /gcc-src 
11. mount -s -t 'C:\<cygpath>\<srcdir>' /gcc-src 
12. /gcc-src/configure --target=arm-elf --prefix=/<installdir> \
      --exec-prefix=/<execdir> -v 2>&1 | tee configure.out 
13. make -w all-gcc install-gcc LANGUAGES="c c" 2>&1 | tee make.out

Regards,
Yeong

Configuring, building and installing binutils (binutils-2.10) doesn't 
give me any 
problem, but building gcc (gcc-2.95.2) end with the following error

I'm trying to build the cross-compiler in the /tools/bin
directory and I added it to the PATH.
I saw in the list of FAQ that someone else had a similar problem 
and the suggested solution was to configure the cross gcc with the 
option:

--with-headers=/root/mytmp/newlib-1.8.2/newlib/libc/include

But I tried it without any good news.
Can anyone suggest something else to go on?
Thanks in advance to every good guy that will save my work and 
my patience!
