Dear Kumba, After try several versions of binutils and glibc , it works in crossing XFree86 4.2.1. binutils 2.13.2.1 + gcc 3.2.3 + glibc 2.3.2 and some patchs come from debian's packages ( binutils 2.13.90.0.18 , gcc-3.2.1,glibc-2.3.1) Thanks and best regards, Smills_ho ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kumba" <kumba@gentoo.org> To: <linux-mips@linux-mips.org> Sent: Friday, May 09, 2003 4:30 PM Subject: Re: Problem of cross-mipsel-compiler GLIBC-2.3.X > > I'm not quite sure.
