So here's what I'm trying to do... I want to build gcc, binutils, and newlib, run tests, and IF the tests pass, THEN install them all. However, gcc needs an installed newlib to build it's libraries.
I tried installing newlib into $DESTDIR$PREFIX but gcc ignores $DESTDIR during the compile. Any ideas on how to do this, short of building and installing everything (or at least gcc and newlib) twice?
