Furtheron I will assume MVME130/MVME131 - based...

You will have problems with  your current C-compiler, it 
will not be able to evaluate branches around "LEGITMIZE_xxx_ADDRESS",
(if ..(if (if ()))). 
This is due to tables choosen too small during setup. There were fixes
available from Motorola.

Trick I used to bootstrap gcc on Motorola systems years ago was to
build a cross compiler on a system with approbriate endian ;->,
move all include files from Motorola to the cross development system,
making _SURE_, that these will be used,
and compile the sources to assembler sources, which were assembled
on the target system.

C-compilers delivered by Motorola (except Green Hills, which I never tested)
never were able to compile any GCC-sources (No, even not 1.3[7-9]).
