Well you say your target is powerpc-linux, but you also say
--with-newlib. Is that really correct? I do similar mips builds all
the time without problem, but I also specify --with-sysroot= so that the
system libraries and header files are found.
If you are trying to bootstrap a toolchain, you might give Crosstool a
try. It takes care of specifying all the fiddly options needed to
bootstrap a toolchain.
