Compiling GCC 3.2.3: glibc's crti.o not found

[Peter Hartlich <peter at hartlich dot com>]

Hello!

I'm trying to compile GCC 3.2.3 on a system where the glibc is installed at
/pkg/glibc-2.3.2. /pkg/glibc is a symbolic link to this directory. GCC should
be installed to /pkg/gcc-3.2.3.

First I tried using

  CFLAGS="-Wl,-dynamic-linker -Wl,/pkg/glibc/lib/ld-linux.so.2 -Wl,-rpath
  -Wl,/pkg/glibc/lib -Wl,-rpath-link -Wl,/pkg/glibc/lib -Wl,-L/pkg/glibc/lib
  -isystem /pkg/glibc-2.3.2/include -isystem 
/pkg/linux-headers-2.4.20/include"

and:

  ../gcc-3.2.3/configure --prefix=/pkg/gcc-3.2.3 --enable-shared
  --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu
  --enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-nls && make
  
This resulted in the following error:

  /src/gcc-build/gcc/xgcc -B/src/gcc-build/gcc/
  -B/pkg/gcc-3.2.3/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/
  -B/pkg/gcc-3.2.3/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem

Since it seems that the CFLAGS aren't inherited for the call of xgcc, I
added

  -isystem /pkg/glibc-2.3.2/include -isystem 
/pkg/linux-headers-2.4.20/include

to the FLAGS_FOR_TARGET variable in the top level Makefile and started
compiling again.

This fixed the problem, but then I received another error at a later stage:

  libgcc_s.so && ln -s libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so
  /cmd/ld: cannot open crti.o: No such file or directory

So I also included

  -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/pkg/glibc/lib -Wl,-rpath-link -Wl,/pkg/glibc/lib
  -Wl,-L/pkg/glibc/lib
  
in FLAGS_FOR_TARGET. This, however, changed nothing.

How can I get GCC to find the glibc libraries at /pkg/glibc/lib? This is not
going to be a cross-compiler, thus  configure --with-libs  won't work.
