upgrading glibc for mipsel

["Ratin Rahman \(mratin\)" <mratin@cisco.com>]

In an effort to build gdbserver, I am trying to upgrade my glibc and gcc cross compile tools. I am  having

problem while bulding glibc-2.3.3, mipsel compiler version 3.2.3 and current glibc ver

is 2.2.5.

 

I exported all current cross tools and cross compiler with export.

 

configured with the options:

../glibc-2.3.3/configure --prefix=/opt/crosstool --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=mipsel-linux --with-binutils=/opt/mipseltools/bin/ --enable-add->

 

did a make and after make went thru for 5 mins or so, it threw this error message:

I get the following error:

I will appreciate any help if you could provide..
