crosstool looks clunky to me.  I solved the problem by adding a few
more command-line parameters to the configure script:

../gcc-4.3.3/configure --target=powerpc-linux
--program-prefix=powerpc-linux- --enable-languages="c"
--without-headers --disable-shared  --with-newlib --disable-threads
--disable-nls
