Ah, I guess (gcc/Makefile.in): CPPLIB = ../libcpp/libcpp.a ... # For stage1 and when cross-compiling use the build libcpp which is # built with NLS disabled. For stage2+ use the host library and # its dependencies. ifeq ($(build_objdir),$(build_libobjdir)) BUILD_CPPLIB = $(build_libobjdir)/libcpp/libcpp.a else BUILD_CPPLIB = $(CPPLIB) $(LIBIBERTY) is not properly reflected in above dependences.
