The 'internal compiler error' line is the worst one.  That's fixed
in a newer snapshot of gcc-4.1; seee http://gcc.gnu.org/PR22379

But perhaps the real problem is that demo-ppc750.sh picks an
unstable development version of gcc by default
(probably because I left it that way by accident when filing
a bug report).  See
http://kegel.com/crosstool/current/buildlogs/
for a list of the ones that actually build.
I'd suggest editing that file to select gcc-4.0.1 instead.

Where do you want to run the apps you'll compile with this
toolchain?  Is it a linux system that's already running?
If so, you might want to match its version of glibc.
