Is it really a cross-compile? Heck, its a 386!

reed@barbados:~/build/gcc$ find gcc-3.3.2 -name "*.la"
reed@barbados:~/build/gcc$ find build-gcc  -name
"*.la"
reed@barbados:~/build/gcc$ find build-glib -name
"*.la"
reed@barbados:~/build/gcc$ find glibc-2.3.2 -name
"*.la"
reed@barbados:~/build/gcc$ cd ~/rl/dev/toolroot
reed@barbados:~/rl/dev/toolroot$ find . -name "*.la"
reed@barbados:~/rl/dev/toolroot$

Where exactly is that file? is that a "one" or an
"ell"? I cut and pasted from you mail, and I
tried both 1 and l as well as libc.la.
nothing.

Well, I guess I could just hack the configure script
to ADD the path. However, won't it just break at the
next place its needed?  Do I need to rewrite the 
script to get it to work or is there something else
wrong with my setup....

Thank you for the suggestions! I still need to try
#2. just ran out of time. Have to go to my Day job.
