In order to build native-sdk-image recipe, I found my self compiling glibc_2.9-r37.4, because it is the real provider of virtual-libc-dev (the toolchain does not truly provide it -but that is another bug [1]-).
But the glibc_2.9-r37.4 configuration fails using the canonical arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- toolchain (using the csl external toolchain fails too, but for other reasons): Log data follows: | configure.in:2204: warning: AC_CACHE_VAL(pic_default, ...): suspicious cache-id, must contain _cv_ to be cached | ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:1999: AC_CACHE_VAL is expanded from... | ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2020: AC_CACHE_CHECK is expanded from... | configure.in:2204: the top level | checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu | checking host system type... arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi | checking add-on ports for preconfigure fragments... am33 arm hppa m68k mips | configure: running configure fragment for add-on nptl | configure: running configure fragment for add-on libidn | checking sysdep dirs... ports/sysdeps/arm/elf ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/eabi/nptl ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/eabi sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/eabi ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/nptl ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux nptl/sysdeps/pthread sysdeps/pthread sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux sysdeps/gnu sysdeps/unix/common sysdeps/unix/mman sysdeps/unix/inet ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv sysdeps/unix/sysv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm ports/sysdeps/unix nptl/sysdeps/unix sysdeps/unix sysdeps/posix ports/sysdeps/arm/eabi ports/sysdeps/arm/fpu ports/sysdeps/arm/nptl ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/wordsize-32 sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32 sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64 sysdeps/ieee754 sysdeps/generic/elf sysdeps/generic | checking for a BSD-compatible install... /media/DISK/meego/vjaquez-angstrom-setup-scripts/build/tmp-angstrom_2008_1/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/install -c | checking whether ln -s works... yes | checking for arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc... ccache arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -mthumb-interwork -mno-thumb | checking for suffix of object files... o | checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes | checking whether ccache arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -mthumb-interwork -mno-thumb accepts -g... yes | checking for ccache arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -mthumb-interwork -mno-thumb option to accept ISO C89... unsupported | checking for gcc... ccache gcc | checking how to run the C preprocessor... arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -E | configure: error: C preprocessor "arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -E" fails sanity check | See `config.log' for more details.

Why? Because it does not exist in the sysroot!!!! $ find tmp-angstrom_2008_1/sysroots/armv7a-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/ -name "limits.h" tmp-angstrom_2008_1/sysroots/armv7a-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib/gcc/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/4.3.3/include-fixed/limits.h tmp-angstrom_2008_1/sysroots/armv7a-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/c++/4.3.3/tr1/limits.h tmp-angstrom_2008_1/sysroots/armv7a-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/linux/limits.h Why? Why the toolchain does not install a sane limits.h in a sane directory?
