[uClibc] problem: uclibc toolchain for arm (xscale) big endian

[K.P.Jayanth]

Hi,


  I am trying to build a toolchain for arm(xscale) bigendian
architecture. In the config  have selected ARCH_BIG_ENDIAN (but by
default he selects ARCH_LITTLE_ENDIAN).. So we need to stop the make and
edit uClic/.config to select ARCH_BIG_ENDIAN = y

I got the following error on running make:-

Is there some solution to this problem..
