What did you use for the "configure" command parameters before 
running make?  Did you supply the "--target=powerpc-eabi" option?

If you properly configure, you don't need any explicit target on
the make command line.  You will need to limit the build to just
the C compiler until newlib is built.  If you use a full gcc tar
file, i.e. gcc-3.4.1.tar.bz2 rather than gcc-core-3.4.1.tar.bz2,
you would want to add LANGUAGES="c" to your make command.

Once that completes, do a "make install" and build newlib.  Then
you can go back and rebuild gcc with C++ support if you need that.

Right - you need that for a native compiler build.
