It took me a few days and a lot of help from the crosgcc mailing list to get it to build, but finally I succeeded (I succeeded to build it in separate steps, and also by using the crosstool of Dan, by changing some files, which Dan included in his release). Shortly after, we started to use a powerpc processor, so I started to build the gcc compiler for the powerpc. This took a lot less effort because I used about the same procedure as for building the mips cross compiler. Anyway, here are the steps I used : First step : building binutils. The sources were unzipped in a directory binutils-2.14. I created a directory build-binutils-powerpc from which the configure and make were run. In directory build-binutils-powerpc : ../binutils-2.14/configure --target=powerpc-eabi --host=i686-pc-cygwin --build=i686-pc-cygwin --prefix=/gcc-powerpc after configure is done, in the same directory I started make like this : make all install. After this step, I added the <prefix> directory to the PATH so that cygwin can find the newly created binutils. I did this in a file called 'cygwin/etc/profile'. In this file you can see some paths which are added to the PATH variable. I simply added mine in the same manner, and the resulting line was ´PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/gcc-powerpc/bin:$PATH"´ as my prefix directory was gcc-powerpc. Remember to restart your cygwin window for the changes to have effect. Second step : making bootstrap gcc. The sources were unzipped in directory gcc-3.3.3. I created a directory build-gcc-powerpc from which the configure and make were run. In directory build-gcc-powerpc : ../gcc-3.3.3/configure --target=powerpc-eabi --host=i686-pc-cygwin --build=i686-pc-cygwin --prefix=/gcc-powerpc --without-headers --with-newlib after configure is done, in the same directory I started make like this : make all-gcc install-gcc. Third step : building the newlib libraries. The sources were unzipped in directory newlib-1.12.0. I created a directory build-newlib-powerpc from which the configure and make were run. In directory build-newlib-powerpc : ../newlib-1.12.0/configure --target=powerpc-eabi --host=i686-pc-cygwin --build=i686-pc-cygwin --prefix=/gcc-powerpc after configure is done, in the same directory I started make like this : make all install. Fourth step : making the complete cross compiler. Using the same sources in gcc-3.3.3 as for the bootstrap gcc, I created a directory build-gcc-final-powerpc for the configure and make step. In directory build-gcc-final-powerpc : ../gcc-3.3.3/configure --target=powerpc-eabi --host=i686-pc-cygwin --build=i686-pc-cygwin --prefix=/gcc-powerpc --enable-languages=c make all install. I did not succeed in creating a cross compiler for c++, but as I for the time being I don't really need c++ I did not put any further effort in that step. I hope this is of some help.
