The 'arm-*eabi*' targets handling at least seem to be somehow buggy, for 
myself it happened
that the build of  a cross GCC for 'arm-maemo-linux-gnueabi' went really 
weirdly when I had
the newlib's two subdirs, 'newlib' and 'libgloss' symlinked into the 
gcc-4.4.2 sources.  There
was no '--with-newlib' in the GCC configure command but despite of this 
the build tried to use
the newlib headers in the sources before the proper target ones /from 
'www.scratchbox.otg'),
sysrooted in the chosen $sysroot....
