There is no such target as i586-pc-linux-gnulibc2! I'm quite sure egcs-1.1.2
didn't detect this, instead you tried to give this configuration to configure,
am I right?

There's either *-linux-gnulibc1 for libc5 or *-linux-gnu for glibc-2.x based
systems. But the best thing for native builds is to give either nothing or
only a target alias to configure, like:

cd objectdir
../egcs-1.1.2/configure i586-pc-linux

The rest of the configuration will be detected by configure then.
