We've discovered a couple of errors in the crosstool + patch on the Wiki
at the moment.  This will be corrected soon, but in the meantime there
are two manual steps you need to do to get it to build:
     1. link /usr/bin/ar to i686-host_pc-linux-gnu-ar somewhere in your
        path, and
     2. You need to add the attached patch into the crosstool build.  In
        the top-level of the un-packed crosstool-0.43.tar.gz there is a
        patches/ directory;  Create a new directory in there called
        glibc-2.7/ and save the patch (glibc-2.4-libeh-kludge.patch) in
        there.

(You still need to apply the patch on the wiki page as well)

After that crosstool should build fine. Sorry for this; I'll send
another email when the files on the wiki are updated.
