Hey,
in fact that very often people have problems building their own
cross-compiling toolchain I want to show you a litte, very nice project.

git://git.infradead.org/users/segher/buildall.git

It's maintained by Segher, a activ member of #gcc (freenode).

So get the latest sources of binutils, gcc and untar them.
Modify the config, and run the build script and you'll have a (for me)
working toolchain in only few minutes.
