arm-none-linux-gnueabi finishes in an infinite glibc configure loop

[Steve Papacharalambous]

Hi Valentin,

The srpm for the toolchain that you are using is available from: 
http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/

and the name of the rpm is: tc-fsl-x86lnx-armeabi-nptl-4.1.1-2.src.rpm

If you install the srpm and then extract the crosstool archive, 
crosstool-0.42_fsl26Jun06.tar.gz, the patches that were used to build 
this toolchain can be found in the crosstool patches subdirectory, so 
the patches applied to glibc-2.4 will be in:

crosstool-0.42_fsl/patches/glibc-2.4

and the patches applied to glibc-ports will be in:

crosstool-0.42_fsl/patches/glibc-ports-2.4

Hope that this helps,

Best regards,

Steve
