See my recent post that hasn't been sent out to list yet.  I finally
got this working.

The problem was that libgloss.h was included in gcc build, in which we 
have:




/* Don't set the target flags, this is done by the linker script */
#undef LIB_SPEC
#define LIB_SPEC ""


That's why we always failed linking libiberty for the target.  I
simply edited the specs file in the build/gcc directory to say:

*lib:
%{!shared:%{g*:-lg} %{!p:%{!pg:-lc}}%{p:-lc_p}%{pg:-lc_p}}

It's also true that the correct includes were not used, but
fortunately this was harmless in this case.

After making this change to specs the build completed.  I have just
recompiled an example app for the target and loaded it into the
hardware, which is an mpeg2 satellite receiver, and it is working
normally.
