Re[2]: [Mingw-users] How to build a cross compiler

Luke and others who responded to my original message,
Many thanks for your offer of advice etc. Just got back to this after
having to work on other things.
To repeat what my needs are - I need a tool chain that executes under
Windows 2000 to build applications to run on i386 linux.
My system:
Windows 2000 SP 3, on AMD Athlon XP1700+, 256MB RAM
Installed:
MinGW-2.0.0.3.exe
MSYS-1.0.8.exe
Obtained copies of:
binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1-src.tar.gz
gcc-3.2.3-20030504-1-src.tar.gz
Placed these in directory:
~/xmingw
Changed directory to:
~/xmingw
Executed:
gzip -dc binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1-src.tar.gz | tar xf -
mv binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1-src binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1
cd binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1 && ./configure \
--target=i386-pc-linux-gnu \
--prefix=/opt/xmingw32 \
> ../binutils-configure.log 2>&1
cd binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1 && \
make "CFLAGS=-2 -O2" > ../binutils-build.log 2>&1
(Note: 'mv' line is because binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1-src.tar.gz
unzips atypically to binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1-src rather than
binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1 and I like to keep things tidy!)
There does not appear to be anything unexpected in the
binutils-configure.log.
The make however fails with the relevant lines in binutils.build.log
being:
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/kit/xmingw/binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1/intl'

make[2]: *** [localealias.o] Error 1
On examining localealias.c, it would appear that the problem is
related to the ":." at the end of aliaspath in
binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1/intl/Makefile.
At least, removing the :. does fix this problem even if it isn't the
correct solution.
With this change (even if not totally appropriate), binutils build
seems to complete OK.
I now execute:
cd binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1 && \
make install > ../binutils-install.log 2>&1
This fails and the last few relevant lines of binutils-install.log
are:
make[4]: Entering directory `/home/kit/xmingw/binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1/bfd/doc'

My apologies for the length of this message.
Any help would be most appreciated. I have been fighting this problem
for some time now and no matter what I do I just don't seem to get
anywhere.
Best regards,
Chris Bishop
