I am attempting to build a cross compiler from sparc-sun-sunos4.1.2 to
mips-sgi-irix4.0.5.  I am using GNU as v2.1 and GNU ld 2.2 as cross
tools, and I have tried this with gcc-2.5.2 and gcc-2.5.4, thus I use
the configure line:

configure --host=sparc-sun-sunos4.1.2 --target=mips-sgi-irix-4.0.5  \
--with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --prefix=/users/jeffw/cross

It gets all the way down to cross-test and enquire.  It compiles and links
both with no warnings.  I FTP both to the SGI.  enquire runs fine, but
cross-test dies on startup with a memory fault.

Miscellaneous clues:  The install notes said I would need to supply at least
an empty libgcc1.a.  I didn't waiting for it to blow up, and it never did.
I have done all this with the irix4loser configuration as well, and it did the
same thing.

Since enquire runs, I'm really encouraged (it blows my mind that this works
at all), but I seem to be out of luck here.  Any clues, pointers, etc.
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff
