I tried the patch, with no success.  However, one question remains 
regarding the modification done to the file 
glibc-2.3.3/sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/sparcv9/Makefile
and its assembly flags to include .oST. 
-ASFLAGS-.oS += -Wa,-Av9a
+ASFLAGS-.oST += -Wa,-Av9a

My question is that in the case of the an ARM target is there a file to 
modify to include those assembly flags such as in file
/sysdeps/cris/Makefile on line 40
ASFLAGS-.os = -fpic

I am looking into this at the moment.  If I start with crosstool.sh, I 
guess it is possible to keep the structure I've already built and just 
build glibc?.... or should I instead start over from scratch using the 
all.sh script?

thanks
J.O.
