GCC i586-pc-linux-gnu cross i586-pc-msdosdjgpp won't build.

[Michael Trausch]

I've been trying to build a GNU toolchain to compile for DOS (e.g., DJGPP)
and I was able to successfully compile the binutils package, targetted to
i586-pc-msdosdjgpp.  After that I created a directory for building
gcc-3.2.2 in, and went to that directory (~/Download/djgpp/build-gcc), and
started the configure (../gcc-3.2.2/configure
--target=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp)  All was well with that, and I started make.
Well, it has seemingly got a good ways until here:

***Begin Make Output
gcc -DIN_GCC -DCROSS_COMPILE   -g -O2 -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wtraditional -pedantic

make[1]: *** [f771] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/fd0man/Download/djgpp/build-gcc/gcc'
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2
***End Make Output

I'm not exactly sure where .Ldebug_ranges0 is supposed to come from, nor
do I know if that's a common build problem when building a cross for DOS.

In the end I want three functional cross compilers, and library sets, and
I'm not sure that I'll ever actually GET all three of them, but I want to
have them, nonetheless.

	i586-pc-linux-gnu cross i586-pc-msdosdjgpp
	i586-pc-linux-gnu cross i586-pc-mingw32

Are the two I'd really like to have.  If possible, I'd like to have a
copy of gcc that will run on my i586-pc-linux-gnu, and compile for
NetBSD/Alpha... what triplet that would be, I'm not certain.

In any case, if anyone can offer any advice, I'm all ears.  I'm hoping
that I've only made a stupid mistake, and that all is really well.

Thanks in advance for any help!
