i686 Multilib Question


Hi there, this is my first post on gcc mailing lists.

I have currently i686 system (Linux From Scratch) and I would like to bootstrap multilib compiler on that one. The problem is, I don't have any working multilib compiler, only i686 one. And I don't know where to start.

I have tried first enabling multilib and all targets in binutils, then statically compiling gcc.

I ran into problems in bootstrap stage and tought it was a bug. A more detailed report about this can be found in bug report http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53662

Has anyone managed to bootstrap multilib compiler using i686 one? I would like to have i686 compiler, but also I want to be able to use -m64 which is done by multilib right? I am aware that I need multilib binutils, static gcc to compile multilib glibc and use it to bootstrap full gcc with shared libraries and such. Am I right? But I am unable to accomplish that. Could anyone guide me in right direction? Google does not help very much. And yes, I want this. I don't want to install or build 64 bit operating system.

Regards.
