egcs/ld issues

[lohner at debian dot org]

OK I have some problems.  I built egcs with --host=sparc-sun-linux-gnulibc1 
(This is on an ultrasparc) and installed it, and things ran fine.  Then I 
rebuilt binutils, but let the host default (it went to 
sparc64-unknown-linux) and installed and tested (or _thought_ I tested) them 
under a chrooted environment and then installed those.  After that, things 
stopped working (configure scripts produced ld errors, such as the one 
below).

I thought the compile procedure was binutils, gcc/egcs, binutils, libc, etc. 
but guess I did something wrong.  Should I not have recompiled binutils 
again, or should I have forced them to a sparc-sun-linux-gnulibc1 host when 
compiling?  What messed up and why? Are there options I can feed ld to make 
it work? (And now for my favorite:) How do I recover from this best?  
Options are restoring from backups, or trying to compile on another 32 bit 
machine with a --target=sparc-sun-linux-gnulibc1

Thanks ,Nils.
