The log is for: build=x86_64 host/target=mips. The log shows the build system using a pre-installed x86_64->mips cross compiler when building libgcc/libstdc++. > The resulting compiler will not run as it cannot find cc1, because the > search dirs are incorrect; they are prefixed with "../lib" instead of > "/usr/lib" (eg instead of /usr/lib/gcc/mips-linux-musl/6.1.0/ ..., the > path is ../lib/gcc/mips-linux-musl/6.1.0/ ...).

Where does the GCC build process > determine/set what the search dirs should be? The search paths are constructed out of the prefix in this case as well as having a relative path as a fallback. The absolute path that you build GCC with (--prefix) will be searched first with lib/gcc/xyz suffixed otherwise the directory containing the GCC executable will be searched by suffixing ../ to get to the root of the toolchain and then lib/gcc/xyz. The latter form of searching only works if you invoke the 'main' GCC executable in <root>/bin/[mips-linux-musl-]gcc if you invoke the copy at <root>/mips-linux-musl/bin/gcc then the relative path will fail as that copy of gcc is 2 levels deep not 1 level. Hope that helps a bit, Matthew
