Hi Philip:
Thank you very much for your response.
I solved the problem by using a configure option
--with-headers=/usr/local/arm/arm-linux/include in re-compiling c and c++.
My purpose is to build a toolchain for strong arm with big endian. I did
following:
built binutils-2.95.0.29 with configure --target=arm-linux
built gcc for "c" with configure --target=arm-linux
built glibc with configure arm-linux and put compile option:
arm-linux-gcc -mbig-endian
rebuilt gcc for c and c++.
But when I tried to use the toolchain to compile a program like:
arm-linux-gcc -mbig-endian -c -o test test.c
I got error messages:
/usr/local/arm/arm-linux/lib/libc.s0.6: could not symbols: Invalid
operation
This result means collect2 ( may be arm-linux-ld ) can not read library.
But if I complied the glibc without -mbig-endian will be little endian so
that I do not think the result binary file will be a big endian.
I go back to your web paper and a post message from Erik Mouw. I found I
might build a toolcahin using big endia.
I configured the binutils-2.95.0.29:
%.\configure --target=armv4b-unknow-linux --prefix=/usr/local/arm
% make
% make install
This is OK.
I copied inux-2.2.12 headers linux-2.2.12/include/asm-arm and
linux-2.2.12/include/linux to the /usr/local/arm/include
I built gcc-2.95.2:
% .\configure --target=armv4b-unknow-linux --prefix=/usr/local/arm
% make LANGUAGES="c"
I got a lot of error messages such as:
No such 386 instruction 'dividend'
No such 386 instruction 'divisor'
I could not figure out what wrong with this configuration and make.
Would you please let me know how can I fix this problem.
Also by the way, Is it possible to build linux kernel using newLib?
Thanks a lot.

Are you sure this happens with glibc 2.1.3? Earlier versions had this
problem
but it should be fixed now.
