Hello,
I've used crosstool-0.42 with gcc-3.4.6, glib-2.3.6, binutils-2.16.1 and 
sanitized headers linux-libc-headers-2.6.12.0 for powerpc-405-linux-gnu 
target (it's actually PowerPC-405GPr). 2.6.15.6 kernel compiled with the 
toolchain runs ok.

I can try to test it on Virtex-II Pro (custom board, not ML300) this 
weekend, if you're interested.
