RedHat --> MIPS gcc cross-compile Problem

[Prabhakar Sarma Neog <psneog at iitg dot ernet dot in>]

Hi

I am trying to cross compile gcc for an MIPS on a RedHat Linux 6.0, using
the unified tree approach (binutils+gcc+newlib)

---
** The "gcc -v" output is: 
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.66/specs
gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)
------
** The configure command is 
../src/configure --with-gnu-ar --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld
--prefix=/usr/local/mips  --exec-prefix=/usr/local/mips --target=mips
--with-newlib --disable-shared 
--------
** The make command is
make cross LANGUAGES="c c++"
-----

** PROBLEM **: This produces the following errors: (last part only)

Would somebody help me please? Thanks in advance.
