26 <para os="e">Here we will compile GCC, as a cross-compiler that will create
27 executables for our target architechture, statically so that it will not
28 need to look for Glibc's startfiles, which do not yet exist in
29 <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>. We will use this
30 cross-compiler, plus the cross-linker we have just installed with Binutils,
31 to compile Glibc. After Glibc is installed into
32 <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>, we can rebuild GCC
33 so that it will then be able to build executables that link against the
34 libraries in <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>.</para>
