Hi

I'm trying to cross compile GCC
To save confusion here I mean I'm building GCC with a cross compiler
and not building GCC as a cross compiler.

I'm getting the following error while running configure:

checking for correct version of gmp.h... yes
checking for correct version of mpfr.h... no
configure: error: Building GCC requires GMP 4.1+ and MPFR 2.3.0+.

I'm at a loss for why the mpfr.h check is failing.

I'm running configure with:
./gcc-4.3.3/configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/built
--with-gmp=/built --with-mpfr=/built

I'm working on the assumption that this error is referring to
libraries that must be available under the host environment.

Yes, the 'arm-none-linux-gnueabi' ones...

I've downloaded and built gmp-5.0.1 and mpfr-2.4.2 and installed them
to the prefix "/built".

I would assume them then going to the '$prefix/include' and
'$prefix/lib'. In a native build into '/usr/include' and '/usr/lib'.
A native installation is quite individual, it has its own totally
private "system directories" where to put all the stuff...

BUT a crosscompiler is a 'portable' GCC which usually will be put
among other crosscompilers and they all use the same common $prefix.
So for it the $prefix is only that "common member" in the search
paths, the private "system directories" are in $tooldir aka
'$prefix/$target'. There are the 'bin', 'include' and 'lib' which
a native install has in '/usr'...

So you should have the 'arm-none-linux-gnueabi' headers and libs in :

 /built/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/include
 /built/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib

Ie. when configuring already know the difference between '--prefix='
in a native and in a cross case.  When producing and installing any
target libraries (made for the target $host), one must use the
'--prefix=$tooldir but with binutils and GCC use the common $prefix
(stuff will be made for the cross $host)

The /built directory only contains these and binutils.

The '$prefix/bin' has only the '$target-<tool>'s not any bare-name
'<tool>'s like 'as', 'ld', 'nm' for the cross-GCC to use. The '/built'
so can only have things for YOU to use, not anything for the cross-GCC
to use! The '$tooldir' has the things the cross-GCC needs...
