Thank you for the help! Looking at my configure options I don't set the libdir for glibc. .../glibc/configure --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --host=$target --target=$target --prefix=/home/alex/sysroot/usr --with-headers=/home/alex/sysroot/usr/include Glibc configure's --help does not mention a libdir setting. I would guess that setting --with-headers to a subdirectory of --prefix would cause no issues. Nor do I change the libdir in gcc and binutils at any point.
