[uClibc] powerpc cross compile

Hello,

I have searched through the archives regarding a problem I am 
encountering with buildroot but cannot see any specific references to 
it.  I am trying to set up a buildroot environment on a Redhat Linux 9 
i686 machine which will cross compile uclibc binaries for a powerpc 8245 
platform.  The buildroot script works just fine for i386 without 
cross-compile.  However when I try the powerpc cross compile version I 
encounter error messages as outlined below.  If anyone can see anything 
obvious I would greatly appreciate your advice
