Problems with Cygwin Cross-Compiler

[FBSC]

Hello, today i tried to create a Cygwin cross-compiler following the instructions on GCC Cross-Compiler.
I downloaded binutils and put it in /usr/src/binutils-2.9.1, ran all the cmds on the wiki, but at:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/src/build-binutils
../binutils-2.9.1/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix=$PREFIX --disable-nls
make all <--

gave me an error:

Code: Select all

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/build-binutils/libiberty'
if [ -n "" ] && [ ! -d pic ]; then \
          mkdir pic; \
        else true; fi
touch stamp-picdir
echo "# !Automatically generated from ../../binutils-2.9.1/libiberty/functions.d
ef"\
          "- DO NOT EDIT!" >needed2.awk

         | sed -e '/DEFVAR/s|DEFVAR.\([^,]*\).*|/\1/ { printf "#ifndef NEED_\1\\

         >>needed2.awk

         >>needed2.awk

null
make[1]: *** [dummy.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/build-binutils/libiberty'
make: *** [all-libiberty] Error 2

How can i solve this? I use Windows XP SP3, if can help

To quote from the tutorial:

Note: The versioning scheme used is that each fullstop separates a full number, eg. 2.8.0 2.9.0 2.10.0 2.11.0, this may be confusing if you're used to Windows' program's schemes (eg. 1.01 1.02 etc).

Binutils 2.9 is ancient. The current version is 2.20, which the table Cross-Compiler_Successful_Builds would have told you.

Nevermind. Happens rather frequently.

PS: And because it does, I changed the wording a bit:

Note: The versioning scheme used is that each fullstop separates a full number, i.e. binutils 2.20.0 is newer than 2.9.0. This may be confusing, if you have not encountered this (quite common) versioning scheme yet, when looking at an alphanumerically sorted list of tarballs: The file at the bottom of the list is not the latest version!

Thanks, seems to be "making"... When it will be finished 'll try and compile gcc
