Kyle,
Thanks for the problem report; sorry I took so long to respond.

I reproduced your problem just now.  It looks like binutils-2.14
(which I switched to in crosstool-0.27)
does not work properly for arm, at least when compiling glibc-2.3.2.
Use one of H.J.Lu's beta versions instead.
You can do this by copying the file
http://kegel.com/crosstool/crosstool-0.26/gcc-3.3.2-glibc-2.3.2.dat
on top of the similarly named file in crosstool-0.27.  (I evidently
did not do proper regression testing when releasing crosstool-0.27,
in spite of trying.  Sad, isn't it?)

Cheers,
Dan
