[linuxdc-dev] Newbie having trouble with gcc

[Renegade M. <dra...@sp...>]

Hello. I've been trying to build a cross compiler but so far have had no
luck. Following the instructions in the Tools section, binutils installs
just fine. But when building gcc, there are problems. Compilation goes for
awhile and then i get this:

as: unrecognized option `-little'
make[2]: *** [libgcc/./_ashiftrt.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/build/build-gcc/gcc'
make[1]: *** [stmp-multilib] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/build/build-gcc/gcc'
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/home/build/build-gcc'

I've never tried building a cross compiler before. I'm running a Red Hat
6.2 system. I tried upgrading some of the compilation tools, but i still
run into the problem. Here's the versions of some of the tools that i'm using:

make - 3.79
gcc  - 2.95.3
ar   - 2.11.2

Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to be
able to build software for my Dreamcast so that i can start developing for
it and learn how to port packages to it.
