building a cross compiler

[Albert Niessner]

Nothing appears to be wrong in the configure output. It is long so I decided
not to post it. There are no errors or warnings though. I did modify the
configure line a little bit and now get a little further:

target=sparc-sun-solaris2
../gcc-2.95.2/configure --target=$target --prefix=$prefix -v
--with-headers=../Solaris-2.6/include --with-libraries=../Solaris-2.6/lib

and the compile fails with:

/Scratch/CrossCompiler/build-gcc-sparc/gcc/
-B/usr/local/CrossCompiler/sparc-sun-solaris2/bin/ -c -g -O2
-fno-implicit-templates -I. -I../../../gcc-2.95.2/libio -nostdinc++
../../../gcc-2.95.2/libio/iostream.cc -o pic/iostream.o
/home/niessner/Scratch/CrossCompiler/build-gcc-sparc/gcc/xgcc
-B/home/niessner/Scratch/CrossCompiler/build-gcc-sparc/gcc/
-B/usr/local/CrossCompiler/sparc-sun-solaris2/bin/ -c -g -O2
-fno-implicit-templates -I. -I../../../gcc-2.95.2/libio -nostdinc++
../../../gcc-2.95.2/libio/iostream.cc
../../../gcc-2.95.2/libio/iostream.cc:40: printf.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [iostream.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/export/home/niessner/Scratch/CrossCompiler/build-gcc-sparc/sparc-sun-solaris2/libio'

make: *** [all-target-libio] Error 2

I found a reference to this error from February 2000. I am going to try and
track it down using those hints and advice.
