Didn't help at all :-(

Deja'vu... As the messages found via Google :

  http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2005-04/msg00564.html
and
  http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2002-10/msg00002.html

will tell, this problem appeared earlier too...  But no solution seen 
yet, my
previous try with gcc-3.2.3 gave as the result :

kai@Dell:/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-dec-osf1/3.2.3> ls -l
total 4208
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root    4096 2005-05-23 21:01 ./

and empty 'crtfastmath.o' and 'libgcc.a' and quite the same result
with the 'alpha-dec-osf4' target...

My tries will stop here, let's hope xiongjun could succeed  with
the native 'as' !
