Aha.  I suspect that glibc doesn't support that target.
Are you sure you're running Linux on that target, and
that the linux on your powerpc 8540 is running glibc?
More likely, your target is bare metal with no operating
system, in which case you need newlib rather than glibc,
and crosstool might not be for you.
(There are some scripts in contrib/newlib* to build such
a toolchain, but you might also prefer to look elsewhere.)
