I can bootstrap a cross-compiler with no target system library with GCC 4.3.3,
but using the same configuration options causes a failure when building GCC
4.4.3. It appears to be attempting to build the regex function of libiberty
for the target, and failing because there isn't a target system library
available. I'm not sure why 4.4.3 wants to build that when 4.3.3 did not. My
configuration options are based on what Codesourcery uses for arm-none-eabi in
their 2009q3 toolchain.
Configuration:
../gcc-%{version}/configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--mandir=/usr/share/man \
--infodir=/usr/share/info \
--target=arm-none-eabi \
--disable-libmudflap \
--disable-libssp \
--disable-libstdcxx-pch \
--enable-extra-sgxxlite-multilibs \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-gnu-ld \
'--with-specs=%{O2:%{!fno-remove-local-statics: -fremove-local-statics}}
%{O*:%{O|O0|O1|O2|Os:;:%{!fno-remove-local-statics: -fremove-local-statics}}}'
\
--enable-languages=c \
--enable-shared \
--disable-lto \
--with-newlib \
--disable-nls \
--disable-libgomp \
--without-headers \
--disable-decimal-float \
--disable-libffi \
--with-system-zlib \
--enable-version-specific-runtime-libs \
--enable-interwork \
--enable-poison-system-directories
