Yes and no, It fixes the compilation so that ld no longer gets into a loop, but
the installed compiler is still not working due to the missing search paths.
This bug
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35532
explored the issue of using sysroot for native builds and it appears the
consensus is not to support retargeted compilers anymore for native builds, and
that the sysroot framework should be used even though some people are still
stating that it is for cross compiling only.
I'll be opening a new bug on the sysroot problems I'm having with 4.3 since it
appears no one has tried a combined gcc + binutils bootstrap with sysroot (or
at least I can't find a bug on it in gcc bugzilla).
Thanks for all the help.
