I tried the above command, got the path to libc.a. I looked in that
directory. I have libtermcap.a in the same directory! It did not pick
it up.

$ ./crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.5/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu-gcc
--print-file-name=libc.a
/proj/tftp/u/ssrirama/build_GDB/crosstool-0.43/crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.5/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/lib/libc.a


ls /proj/tftp/u/ssrirama/build_GDB/crosstool-0.43/crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.5/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/lib/libtermcap.a

And, the termcap.h file is in the include directory:
ls /proj/tftp/u/ssrirama/build_GDB/crosstool-0.43/crosstool/gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.5/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/powerpc-603e-linux-gnu/include/termcap.h
