I've this too. I tried to modify the host.def to undef CppCmd, but it
failed. Out of luck, a simple "ln -s /usr/bin/cpp /lib/cpp" did the
trick.

Yet... I've now a bigger problem. The ar command installed is from 
busybox, and is quite limited... :(

ar clq libXau.a AuDispose.o AuFileName.o AuGetAddr.o AuGetBest.o AuLock.o
AuRead.o AuUnlock.o AuWrite.o
ar: clq: No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [libXau.a] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/exp/xc/lib/Xau'
make[2]: *** [install] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/exp/xc/lib'
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/exp/xc'
make: *** [install] Error 2

Tried to reinstall binutils on top of root_fs, and it failed too, because
of the existing busybox ar.

Rgds,
Christian
