All this talk is aboutn trying to get a 'bootstrap' compiler useful to
build glibc.  Once glibc is build, the standard cross-compiler build
method is to go back and build up a complete compiler(that includes
the unwind stuff). So not having the unwind library shouldn't impose
any problems on *building* glibc.  Running glibc is another matter.

What am I missing here?
