problem building arm-linux-gcc

[Amit Choudhary]

I had been in a similar situation before. Although not sure if
it will apply to you.

This happens when you are using the wrong toolchain to compile
the code. So, you may want to download the pre-compiled version
of gcc-4.1.1. Looks like chicken and egg problem. May be there
is a version between 3.3.2 and 4.1.1 that was used to compile
4.1.1.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Amit
