I don't think you need to give the --with-libs option. see 'Building the GNU toolchain for ARM HOWTO' here: http://www.armlinux.org/docs/toolchain/ so maybe that's the problem. And the more usual answer to this sort of query: Do you really need to build you own? That same doc lists 3 pre-compiled cross-compilers you can just download. There are more now. If you have debian then pointing at the emdebian site and doing apt-get install task-cross-arm is by far the easiest way to get a working cross-compiler. It's not quite as uptodate as the versions you give above, but it works fine for kernel 2.2 and 2.4 compiling, and everyting else I've tried so far.
