--enable-omitfp uses also -O99 and AFAIR this is not sane.

What on earth is your definition of "doesn't work"?  You apply that
phrase very freely.  I have a cross and native compiler, with less than
two dozen lines of patch over GCC 3.0 release, that is capable (despite
everyone's claims) of building glibc and an entire functional Linux/MIPS
distribution, debug info and all.  I haven't finished running tests
over it, but the vast majority work perfectly.
