Build failing when Installing C headers

[Matthieu Rollet <mat dot rollet at gmail dot com>]

Hi,

I'm trying to build the crosstool chain arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi target 
using ct-ng on MacOSX. But the build process is failing at the 
"Installing C library headers & start files" step.

I needed some workarounds due to OSX specific problems :
- install some GNU utils because the ones shipped by Apple with OSX do 
not understand some flags
- Do the building in a case-sensistive environnement (in fact an HFS+ 
case sensitive FS image which is mounted)
- Get ride of static-build problems (the Apple gcc make some problems 
with it).

I do the build in the /Volumes/Crosstool directory (the folder in which 
the image is mounted) so I changed the prefix to 
/Volumes/Crosstool/${CT_TARGET} in the menuconfig.

The error I'm facing is the following :

[ALL  ]    gmake[2]: Entering directory 
`/Volumes/Crosstool/.build/src/eglibc-2_13'
[ALL  ]    /Volumes/Crosstool/.build/tools/bin/install -c -m 644 
include/limits.h /usr/include/limits.h
[ALL  ]    install: /usr/include/limits.h: Permission denied
[ERROR]    gmake[2]: *** [/usr/include/limits.h] Error 71
[ALL  ]    gmake[2]: Leaving directory 
`/Volumes/Crosstool/.build/src/eglibc-2_13'
[ERROR]    gmake[1]: *** [install-headers] Error 2
[ALL  ]    gmake[1]: Leaving directory 
`/Volumes/Crosstool/.build/arm-rpi-linux-gnueabi/build/build-libc-startfiles'

For a reason I cannot understand, the script try to install the eglic 
headers in the /usr/include folder of the system. The system denies this 
(no root privileges). Isn't the toolchain supposed to be relocatable ? 
The headers should be installed in a folder like 
${CT_TARGET}/sysroot/usr/include if I'm correct.

Here attached is my config file (renamed in config.txt). I used the one 
of C. Blaess article ( 
http://www.blaess.fr/christophe/2012/10/19/toolchain-crosstool-ng-pour-raspberry-pi/ 
) to build a toolchain for the Raspberry PI. I just modified the stuff 
concerning the static build and the prefix.

Thanks in advance and best wishes for this new year.
