I'm trying to build a GCC 4.4.2 cross compiler for an arm-elf target

         --target=arm-elf --enable-languages=c --disable-libssp

The configure command works fine, but running "make" fails with the
following error:

   make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/tobias/src/gcc/build/arm-eabi/gcc'
   make: *** [all] Error 2

I've successfully built many earlier versions (including 4.4.1) using
the same command line without any problems. I've searched the mailing
list and the web but not managed to find anything useful.

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2009-10/msg00302.html :) I have that problem too.

So you are doing something really wrong :(

With your $target  most people use 'newlib' as the C library and if one
uses that, producing the GCC should succeed without a pre-existing
target C library. Only installing the generic newlib headers or building newlib
with GCC (copying/symlinking 'newlib' and 'libgloss' from newlib srcs
into the main GCC src dir) are required...  But then one must tell that
via the '--with-newlib' option in GCC configure!


I think you're missunderstanding our problem. We aren't linking to a C library. gcc 4.4.2 just doesn't compile for a bare metal target (you need that in order to be able cross-compile a C library). I think that's really a bug, since 4.4.1 and 4.4.3 (i.e. latest revision in the 4.4 svn branch) both build fine.

Best regards.
