Canadian cross is when you build toolchain on system X to run on system Y, and generate code for system Z.
all right, so I misunderstood, I need to build gcc on system X to run on system Y.
Are you sure it is what you want? I somehow suspect that you want to generate toolchain to build things natively on your mipsel box to run on said box. If that is true, buildroot (http://buildroot.uclibc.org) will do everything
Buildroot also builds gcc which works on let's say x86 and makes binaries for mipsel/uclibc).
I need the gcc binaries which will work on mipsel, and which will build for mipsel.
for you. Also, I think crosstool does it by default as well (not 100% sure though). Look under your destination dir for <target>/bin/gcc.
Crosstool by default builds the binaries on system X that will run on system X and build for Y.
So now I have binaries that build for mipsel/uclibc on x86, but I can't build gcc that will work on mipsel/uclibc with it.
