I'm trying to build a cross compiler on i686 for i386.

Here it is totally unclear what on earth is your $target ! There are
still maybe tens of
Linux/i386's hanging around, all more or less binary uncompatible with
each other...
Maybe you are going to build this "i386-linux-gnu" system from absolute
scratch?
If it is an old PC/i486 board with RHL6.2, then telling that would be
quite sane.
And the GCC version on the $build system is totally unclear...
And the version of the GCC sources being tried is totally unclear...
If wanting anyone to tell any "secrets" oh his/hers, it is quite clear
that one cannot keep
so many "secrets"...
My host/build system type is: i686-pc-linux-gnu
As was the case with the $target, this doesn't tell much about the
host/build system...
Fortunately this info isn't so important. But in cases where trying
gcc-3.2.3 sources
with a gcc-4.1.1 build/host compiler, this info would reveal what the
problem is...
But, i'm getting the following error messages:
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/local/bin/i386-linux-gnu-as',
needed by `stamp-as'. Stop.
If using the native 'i686-pc-linux-gnu' host 'ar', 'as', 'ld', 'nm',
'ranlib' etc. the obvious configure
command template is :
AR_FOR_TARGET=ar \
AS_FOR_TARGET=as \
LD_FOR_TARGET=ld \
NM_FOR_TARGET=nm \
RANLIB_FOR_TARGET=ranlib \
$source_dir/configure .....
So telling what could be used as the tools for $target... Computers are
stupid, everything must
be told to them, nothing left to be "guessed"...
