You need both the default 64-bit and the optional 32-bit C library in sysroot, the 64-bit
libraries in 'lib64' & 'usr/lib64' and the 32-bit libraries in 'lib' & 'usr/lib'. You maybe
installed only the 32-bit ones?

But the 'libc.so' normally isn't a binary file but a text file, a linker script, which puts
the linker to link against the 'libc.so.6' and 'libc_nonshared.a' and maybe 'ld-linux.so.2'
(in the 32-bit case). So complaining about the script is a little odd. Please check the
situation in the '*lib64' and '*lib' directories.

If you don't need the 32-bit anywhere, the use '--disable-multilib' in the GCC configure,
then the build doesn't try to create the 32-bit 'libgcc', 'libstdc++' etc.
