Yeah, this is tricky. The problem is that as soon as you install part of the
toolchain you end up with an inconsistent state of affairs. GCC, binutils and
libc all need to be synchronised for things to work.
About the only way to solve it is to go through an intermediate state of
having either ELF or a.out as a cross-compiler. To be honest it would
probably be easier to ask someone from the Debian or Red Hat camp if they
could provide working binaries. (If you're using a non-RiscPC StrongARM
machine then it's easy; you can just install the NetWinder ones.) Trying to
build everything from source is possible but it's quite a long and painful
process, especially if you haven't had much experience in this area before.
