%general-entities; ]> GCC cross tools, static To make sure that a couple of tools use the proper syntax, apply the following patch: patch -Np1 -i ../&gcc-posix-patch; The GCC documentation recommends building GCC outside of the source directory in a dedicated build directory: mkdir -v ../gcc-build cd ../gcc-build Prepare GCC for compilation: ../gcc-&gcc-version;/configure --prefix=${CLFS}/cross-tools \ --target=${CLFS_TARGET} --disable-multilib \ --with-sysroot=${CLFS} --disable-nls --disable-shared \ --without-headers --with-newlib --disable-decimal-float \ --disable-libgomp --disable-libmudflap --disable-libssp \ --disable-threads --enable-languages=c --disable-shared Disables the creation of the shared libraries. --disable-threads This will prevent GCC from looking for the multi-thread include files, since they haven't been created for this architecture yet. GCC will be able to find the multi-thread information after the Glibc headers are created. --enable-languages=c This option ensures that only the C compiler is built. Continue with compiling the package: make Install the package: make install
