Thanks very much for that.  Now, however, with binutils 2.17 (under
crosstool 0.42, with that patch plus the crosstool binutils-2.16.1
bfd-hash-tweak.patch and cross-gprof.patch manually copied to a new
binutils-2.17 patch dir), glibc 2.3.6, and either gcc 3.4.5 or 3.4.6, I
now get the dreaded:

/tmp/cccIYnFh.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cccIYnFh.s:905: Error: symbol definition loop encountered at
`__divdi3_internal'
/tmp/cccIYnFh.s:905: Error: symbol definition loop encountered at
`__udivdi3_internal'
/tmp/cccIYnFh.s:905: Error: symbol definition loop encountered at
`__moddi3_internal'
/tmp/cccIYnFh.s:905: Error: symbol definition loop encountered at
`__umoddi3_internal'

when compiling glibc's divdi3.c.  Do you not encounter this problem?  Or
is there another patch I need?  Googling hasn't helped with this one
yet.

Thanks,
	Chris
