I've been trying (unsuccessfully so far) to build a 68k-coff gcc running
on Cygwin. I have been using the process documented in:
http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ-4.html
This process builds the binutils first, then the crossgcc, followed by
newlib and lastly gdb.
My binutils (assembler, loader, etc) build and install just fine.
However I cannot get the crossgcc to build. The build dies somewhere
in the middle with the following output:
..................
checking for ANSI C header files... no
checking for uintptr_t... no
checking for pid_t... no
checking whether the C compiler ( /home/Dave/foo/build-gcc/gcc/xgcc
-B/home/Dave/foo/build-gcc/gcc/ -B/bar/m68k-coff/bin/
-B/bar/m68k-coff/lib/ -isystem /bar/m68k-coff/include -O2 -g -O2 )
works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.
make: *** [configure-target-libiberty] Error 1
Does anyone recognize the problem? Help much appreciated.
