crossgcc 3.0 on linux for m68k

[Vermeulen Jan <Jan dot Vermeulen at siemens dot atea dot be>]

Hello there,

I once made a fully working crossgcc in its default locations (/usr/local)
with
binutils 2.10.1
gcc 2.95.3
newlib 1.8.2

But now I would like to upgrade to the newer gcc-3.0 as i heard it has
better C++ support.

I have:
P2 333MHz
Mandrake Linux 8.0
binutils 2.11.2
gcc 3.0
newlib 1.9.0

Following Bill's pre-crossgcc-faq, i managed to make&install binutils and
the gcc-core.
but when I try to configure newlib, it says :

If I do a 'make', it seems to head off in the right direction, but it fails
which is quite straightforward to me, considering it already spit out a "no
configuration information in texinfo" when doing a 'configure'.
But to be complete, here is the error that it produces:

What do you think is going on? Has m68k-coff been removed from newlib-1.9 ?
Or should I first delete ALL previous m68k-coff-* in all directories and the
libraries too?

Kind regard,
Jan

PS: this is actually sort of related to my linker-script problem: The first
time I made a cross-gcc, I did it the 'old' way by changing the gcc
sourcecode. I thought that the linking problem could have been caused by
this, so I decided to make a new one.
