I never had much luck linking GCC generated objects with IBM's High C/C++
linker and libraries.
I think your effort would be better invested if you grabbed the Hard Hard
Linux kernel for the 405GP from MontaVista and set-up an associated NFS
root disk and attempted your development from there.
If you follow the instructions at:
http://www.borg.umn.edu/~grant/Linux/cross.html
The applications you create will run with Monta Vista's kernel and NFS
root file system.
