This warning is what started all of my headaches!

I was getting this warning at first as well. I didn't feel comfortable with
completing the build with this warning, so I brought over GNU's binutils-2.6.
I then built all the bin tools (gas, ld strip, ranlib, etc.) and installed them.
I then tried to built gcc 2.7.2 and started getting this libc.a error. 

I'm working on getting the install CD and comparing checksums with the libc.a
that's on CD.

I'll post my solution if I can find one.
