If you are trying to bootstrap a development environment for the first time on
this system you will find that not everything will build first time around. The
only things that matter at this stage are those that are
built if you type `make LANGUAGES="c"' in the `gcc' subdirectory. In order to
get libgcc2 to compile you may need to add -Dinhibit_libc to the CFLAGS that are
used. The easiest way to do this is to
fiddle the Makefile by hand. Once enough of the compiler is built you can
install it - again you may need to be in the gcc subdirectory and use
LANGUAGES="c" to get this to complete without errors.

I have nothing in the gcc directory but
confdefs.h config.log
I think the test is either failing because arm-linux-gcc doesn't point
to anything, or because it's compiling an arm binary on solaris and
then cant test it on solaris.
Anyway, I'm getting pretty lost, can anyone tell me what is missing?
