Mpfr librarires was not installed on my host system. I have now
installed it using 'emerge mpfr' [mpfr-2.3.1]. I have successfully built
cross compiler toolchain up to gcc stage 1 (using crossdev), currently
glibc is getting built and will update once it completes final toolchain
building.

Thanks and regards, 
Dilip

you cant build gcc-4.3 without gmp and mpfr.  they're hard requirements.
but 
they're requirements that the host system has it, not that they are 
cross-compiled for the target.
