Cross-compile failure. yay.

[Tony Mantler <eek@escape.ca>]

Abstract:

Compilation of i386-linux hosted ppc-linux target cross compiler fails with
an incorrect option passed to 'as' by the newly compiled gcc.


Versions:

Host compiler = egcs-2.91.66 (debian package gcc 2.91.66-2)
Host binutils = 2.9.1.0.25 (debian package binutils 2.9.1.0.25-2)
Target compiler = egcs 1.1.2 core source + egcs 1.1.2 c++ source
Target binutils = 2.9.1.0.25 (debian package binutils-multiarch 2.9.1.0.25-2)
Make = GNU Make 3.77 (debian package make 3.77-4)


Host system:

ti-486/40 16M/420M, Debian 2.1/2.2, 2.2.10 kernel

Target system:

PPC-603e/75 (Mac Performa 5200), will run linux later.


Setup:

../egcs-1.1.2/configure \
	ppc-linux \
	--with-cpu=603e \
	--host=i386-linux \
	--with-headers=/usr/include

make cross
