OK, hours later, also tried GCC 2.95.3, same result. But by now I found 
a valuable description at http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/gnupro/ 
that gave me some insight how the whole thing is supposed to work.

So if I understand this correctly then I miss the C-runtime ("crt0.S"). 
Now since I didn't give a target-OS (just m68k-coff) it would appear 
logical that no runtime can be supplied since the compiler cannot guess 
what my runtime is going to be. Is that the reason why configuring 
Libgloss fails because it assumes that I already have a m68-coff-GCC 
that is able to create executables?

Oh well, more complicated than one would think. :)

But I like that, one can only learn.
