Continued issues with glibc-2.2.1 and mipsel-linux target...

["Steven J. Hill" <sjhill at cotw dot com>]

I am still unable to cross-compile GLIBC for mipsel-linux. I
reported this error before, but was questioned if I was using
the latest kernel headers. Yes, I am. I am using the SGI Linux
kernel which is currently at 2.4.0. Below are the configuration
lines used for the latest binutils and gcc out of CVS which 
built with no problems. Also is my configuration line for GLIBC.

As you can see the same 'kernel_sigset_t' typedef is not being
found. I decided to do a grep through the entire SGI as well as
vanilla 2.4.0 kernel tree using the command line:

    find . -name '*.[chS]' -exec grep -l kernel_sigset_t {} \;

It produced:

       ./include/asm-alpha/posix_types.h
       ./include/asm-ia64/posix_types.h

The line found was:

       typedef unsigned long   __kernel_sigset_t;      /* at least 32 bits */

The above is the only typedef even close to the symbol not being
found when I attempt a cross-compile. I am curious if anyone has
succesfully built a 'mipsel-linux' GLIBC with 2.2.1 or is everyone
building with the 'mips-linux' target?
