This question is not appropriate for the gcc@gcc.gnu.org mailing list. It should be sent to gcc-h...@gcc.gnu.org. Please take any follow ups to gcc-help. Thanks. It looks like this is using the wrong assembler. ../configure CFLAGS=" -march=i686 -O2" --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=powerpc-linux-gnu --prefix=/home/tellabs/GNU/PPC --with-headers=/home/tellabs/GNU/include --with-binutils=/home/tellabs/GNU/PPC/powerpc-linux-gnu/bin I'm not sure, but I think this should be --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=powerpc-linux-gnu. glibc is not a compilation tool and it does not have a target. It only has a host. Ian
