[uClibc]Latest toolchain: ix86 --> powerpc problems

Hello,

I'm trying to get the toolchain (latest from CVS, with fixes for the
cross-build) to compile and run well. But I'm not there yet. Here are a
couple of comments on what I'm seeing:

1. There is this line in the Makefile in the section that configures the
kernel headers:

(cd $(LINUX_DIR)/include; ln -fs asm-$(ARCH)$(NOMMU) asm;)

ARCH=powerpc in my case, and there is no "asm-powerpc" dir in the kernel
headers. It should be "asm-ppc". I believe this should be fixed.


2. I get the following when using the latest toolchains from CVS (both
3.2 and 3.2.1)

Applying gcc-3.2.1/sources/gcc-001-disable-mathf.patch using plaintext: 
can't find file to patch at input line 3
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|--- gcc-3.1/libstdc++-v3/configure	Tue May  7 23:27:59 2002
|+++ gcc-3.1-patched/libstdc++-v3/configure	Thu Aug  8 11:01:35 2002
--------------------------
File to patch: 

hmm, why gcc-3.1?

Suggestions? Thank you,
