I built a few cross-native compilers a few years ago; I will look up how I did it. But I seem to remember that you need to use --with-sysroot somewhere because the problem is that in the build process, when the newly built compiler is used to build libgcc, it does not know where to look for the platform includes. Or at least use a different environment variable for injecting the --sysroot argument. When I did it, I looked at how crosstool-ng did it by looking at its build logs and adapting them for building a native compiler. I am a bit puzzled why you are running an x86_64 toolchain inside an i686 chroot. But that is not the source of your problem, at least for now.
