That's not actually the most common way: you are compiling
in the directory of the source code.

I am not positive, but I remember having problems trying to
do that (building in the source tree). Try building in a
different directory. For binutils as above, you would do:

mkdir binutils-build
cd binutils-build
/usr/src/binutils-20021117-1/configure --prefix=/usr/local --target=mipsel-linux
make


It *should* not make a difference, but GCC building is
somewhat touchy.

HTH,
