According to this, arm-elf-linux-ar is not found, which implies that the 
problem isn't with your gcc compilation, but that the binutils are 
incomplete, or for some reason, it's trying to run it with the wrong 
name.  If it's there, but misnamed, rename it.  Otherwise, look at your 
binutils compilation setup.

I did manage to build an binutils 2.4.90.0.4 + gcc 3.2.3-cvs20030221 
toolchain, using debian's wonderful toolchain-source package+tools; it 
was quite easy (the only hard bit is getting the arch name correct -- 
it's arm-linux on my system).  OTOH, I've yet to compile a binary using 
it that actually runs.
