That won't work without an arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain in the path. When I try to build an arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain by dropping the --host option, I get a glibc build failure home/wilson/Linaro/tcwg/X-tmp/builds/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/arm-linux-gnueabi/glibc.git~release-2.21-master/config.h:4:3: error: #error "glibc cannot be compiled without optimization" --set cflags is overriding the default flags instead of adding to them, so this isn't going to work. If I try using --set cflags="-O2 -static", then I get an abe option parse error ERROR (#612): check_directive (--stage requires a directive. abe.sh found the next -- switch. See --usage for details.' ) This is trying to parse -static thinking it is the abe --stage option because it accepts -sta* as an abbreviation. Personally, I think all of the abbreviations should be dropped as useless. Anyways, it seems it is ignoring the quotes when trying to parse the options. It appears that using the abe --set cflags option isn't useful, and you won't be able to build a static toolchain this way. I successfully built a cross by dropping the cflags and ldflags options. I then tried to use it to build a canadian cross. The build fails in gdb, complaining that I don't have a libtermcap library which is true. This is before it tried to build gcc, so I didn't get any gcc build.
