Hi Dan,
Thanks for the reply.  Can you how to force it to use the newly
compiled libraries?  Where would I copy the libraries from in the
crosstool directory?  There seems to be some in
/build/i386-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.4/build-glibc/.  I
don't suppose there is an 'install' command anywhere to put them into
the correctly /lib structure?

Thanks,
Mark
