I tried to compile a toolchain with gcc greater than 4.3.0 with no success, tried multiple glibc combinations. The errors I'm going to attach are the output of: "crossdev -v --b 2.18-r3 --g 4.3.1-r1 --k 2.6.25-r4 --l 2.7-r2 --target powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu"

I tried compiling a cross toolchain by hand, but when configuring glibc I get : "configure: error: this configuration requires -mlong-double-128 IBM extended format support". This is what I got before removing def headers. I ran "../configure --host=powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --with-headers=/usr/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/include --disable-sanity-checks"
Ok, this is DUPLICATE. His workaround also worked for me. Thanks to cyrillic *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 229391 ***
