i know i have an experimental environment. however the problem is due to gcc 4.0 only Installing header files in /usr/include.

i dont think it's gcc-4 but rather the version of binutils you're using
mmm probably , yes. i need that cause i'm using -Bdirect patches and 2.16 stable is a bit bugged with it. if you have any workaround to test, let me know.
the -Bdirect patch wasnt added to any 2.16.9x, just to 2.16.1
sure but it has some troubles.. check forums and/or bug #114008, lastest seems bit better. in my long world i had no as problems but this.
try 1.9.24 ... that version built for me using 2.16.91.0.5
ok, i confirm 1.9.24 works perfectly. thanks :)
