Although you could use the precompiled image distributed on the list  
recently, if you make modifications to the code you'll need to fix the  
tools somehow.

My suggestion is that you download the tools at

   https://www.ertos.nicta.com.au/downloads/i686-gcc-3.3.4-glibc-2.3.3-2006-06-02.tar.gz

and install that somewhere in your $PATH.  Then, don't use the  
toolprefix='' option.  Can you see whether that works for you?

The --ld problem that you see has also been documented recently,  
unfortunately I don't have access to the archives at the moment to  
give you a precise link...
