Thanks for the help Joseph, this combination worked and I was able to
build a working GCC using this setup.

GCC never installs anything inside sysroot's but some tools that people
have developed to build cross compiler toolchains copy the shared libgcc
libraries (libgcc_s, libstdc++, etc) from the GCC install area into
sysroot as part of the build of a cross compiler toolchain.
I was wondering if I could use the explicit list of MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES
entries to layout those libraries in a way that would make it easy to
copy them into a sysroot if I wanted to. The only thing I am not sure
about if there is a way to specify where I want the default (no option)
libraries to go.
I.e. I can use:
MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES += mips64r2=mipsr2/lib32
MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES += mips64r2/mabi.64=mipsr2/lib64
To create a mipsr2/lib32 and mipsr2/lib64 directory under <target>/lib
for libgcc_s but I would like the default libraries in
<target>/lib/mipsr2/lib instead of directly in <target>/lib. That way I
could use a single copy to put all of <target>/lib/mipsr2 into my
sysroot. Do you know if either of these would work:
MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES += mips32r2=mipsr2/lib
MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES += .=mipsr2/lib
I don't think the first one would work because -mips32r2 is the default
architecture and is not explicitly listed in MULTILIB_OPTIONS and I
don't think the second form is supported at all, but maybe there is some
other way to specify the location of the default libraries?
