Writing a wrapper is more involved than I would like to get, but it is an option. I tried your second suggestion and I still get the following error in my config.log (same as before): /opt/eldk/usr/bin/mips-linux-ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory I double checked my command line linking and this works: /opt/eldk/usr/bin/mips-linux-ld -L$CROSS_BASE/libs/lib/ -EB -nostdlib --whole-archive --emit-relocs main.oo $CROSS_BASE/libs/crt0.o -T$CROSS_BASE/build/linker.lds --start-group -lcrt0 -lstdc++ -lc--end-group -o program So why does autoconf think that mips-linux-ld needs crt1.o (I am not familiar with crt objects)?
