today i tried again to build a cross compiler, to build a kernel with the chown/lchown bug solved.
i used the includes and the libs from the base tarball, and i noticed the following things : first you can (apparently) specify different --with-libs, since in egcs/INSTALL/CONFIGURE it says --with-libs=dirs (notice the s, it don't say so for with-headers), but this don't seem to work, what is the separation of the dir list, i tried a space, a coma and a semicolon. i suppose i need both /usr/lib and /lib as libs to build the cross compiler, since libc is in /lib and crt.o and family are in /usr/lib. but makeing first a ./configure --with-libs=/mnt/lib and then a ./configure --with-libs=/mnt/usr/lib solved the problem, at least i hope since it is compiling right now, and i was not yet able to test it. later on, i had a error during compile time, it seems gcc/gbl-ctors.h at line :43 defines extern void atexit (void (*) (void)) ; and stdlib.h at line 502 : extern int atexit __P ((void (*__func) (void))) ; does someone else already noticed that 'i suppose it only appears when building a glibc2 egcs, or perhaps just a egcs glibc2 cross compiler. i think i will report this also to the egcs mailing list, as soon as i finish building my cross compiler.
