Trouble putting together a glibc-2.3.5 addon for ColdFire

[Peter Barada <peter at the-baradas dot com>]

I'm trying to add ColdFire as an addon for glibc-2.3.5, and it builds
for quite a while, but fails in the elf directory.  I'm building the
toolchain using Dan Kegel's great crosstool script.

I put the source tree together by extracting glibc-2.3.5, and then
inside of glibc.2.3.5 I extracted glibc-ports-2.3.5, as well as
glibc-linuxthreads-2.3.5, and coped the glibc-2.3.5/sysdeps/m68k and
glibc-2.3.5/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k to
glibc-2.3.5/sysdeps/coldfire and glibc-2.3.5/sysdeps/
unix/sysv/linux/coldfire, and added coldfire entries to
glibc-2.3.5/scripts/config.sub, and configured it with:

  $ /home/peter/work/cvs-logic/logic/ColdFire/LinuxTools/crosstool/build/m68k-linux/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/glibc-2.3.5/configure --prefix= --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=coldfire-linux --target=coldfire-linux --without-cvs --disable-profile --without-gd --without-tls --without-__thread --enable-shared --enable-add-ons=linuxthreads,glibc-ports-2.3.5, --with-headers=/opt/logicpd/ColdFire-new14/m68k-linux/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5/m68k-linux/include

The config succeeds, and the build does go throughteh add-on
directories, and eventually fails with

When this fails, there is *no* glibc-ports-3.3.5 directory in
build-glibc.

I'm trying to figure out *how* to debg this, 'make -p' generates over
130MB of output, and is so full of noise that I can't see the trees
for the forest.

Any suggestions on what's gone wrong, or how to debug this are *most*
appreciated!
