I used crosstool and was able to effortlessly install gcc 3.3.2, glibc 2.3.2 for powerpc. Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

One of the reasons I did crosstool was to avoid that kind of hackery. With crosstool, you don't need to build gcc 2.95.3 just to build gcc 3.2.3. Crosstool does clean builds from pristine, minimally patched source. - Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
