yes. That very old familiar handhelds distro is the old ARM ABI. arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain is new arm EABI. That are not compatible. > A long time ago I was able to crosscompile and succesfully run the same > program. > Unfortunately that crosscompiler has vanished since.

We still have that toolchain for lenny, although an older one (2.95 vintage) might well suit your distro better, as a toolchain implies a glibc version and you may still have compatibility issues using gcc-4.1 to make binaries fro handhelds familiar. We have been doing that for a long time using etch toolchains and it largely works although libgcc1 versiosing can be tiresome (you need to force-install things, but they still work). > But as told before, that crosscompiler is not present anymore. Indeed, it has been renamed to arm-linux-gnu-gcc.
