Fair enough. In that case, you don't need libgcc. It
won't build unless you have those other tools, so I'd
just force the build to continue after errors, using
make -k, and later make -k install.

That should give you a cross compiler for you target.
You won't be able to generate programs, but you will
be able to compile source to assembly. In particular,
when you invoke your cross gcc, you'll have to add the
-S options, so it doesn't try to assemble (or link)
the code it generates.

Cheers,

Dara
