[ELDK] arm-linux-x86 failure

[Kin Cho]

Hi Wolfgang,

Sorry for my misunderstanding.

Actually what I really need is to generate an ARM, rather than a "UNIX -
System V" elf executable (as in OS/ABI shown by readelf), however, ELDK
seems to be missing C runtime objects to support it:

dadix 2.6.28-13-generic ~/home/kin/coding$ arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc
-mabi=apcs-gnu test.c -o test
/home/kin/eldk/usr/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.2.2/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld:

test.o | grep ABI
  OS/ABI:                            ARM
  ABI Version:                       0

dadix 2.6.28-13-generic ~/home/kin/coding$

Is there a way to rebuild ELDK to provide ARM OS/ABI support?  If so, how?

Thanks,

-kin
