If you want to compile code that will run on powerpc-linux then you can't
use newlib, you'll need glibc.  You must also build cross binutils.  All
of this is very complicated, so take a look at crosstool, referenced in
Ken Wolcott's reply to you a couple of days ago.  Yes, crosstool is
complicated, but it really is much easier than trying to do it yourself.
