The patch for that particular problem is roughly like one of the ones
already included in crosstool-0.28-pre7:

glibc-linuxthreads-2.1.3/glibc-2.1.3-allow-gcc3-pthread.patch
glibc-linuxthreads-2.2.5/threadparam.patch

but you may need to adjust it slightly for glibc-2.2.3.

You probably have about fifteen more problems ahead of you.  Keep me posted...
