rebuilding for MIPS cross-compile


Hello --

I'm trying to rebuild from source, hosting on NT 4, with
mips-idt-ecoff as the target.  The configure stage seemed to run
without incident.  However, during the make it failed trying
to build libgcc1-test.  Here are the last few lines from the log
file:

 (Begin logfile excerpt):

/software/cygwin/src/gcc/xgcc -B/software/cygwin/src/gcc/ -DCROSS_COMPILE -DIN_GCC   -g -I./include     -c ./libgcc1-test.c

Testing libgcc1.  Ignore linker warning messages.
/software/cygwin/src/gcc/xgcc -B/software/cygwin/src/gcc/ -DCROSS_COMPILE -DIN_GCC   -g -I./include  libgcc1-test.o -o libgcc1-test \
  -nostartfiles -nostdlib `/software/cygwin/src/gcc/xgcc -B/software/cygwin/src/gcc/ --print-libgcc-file-name`

libgcc1-test.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized
make: *** [libgcc1-test] Error 1
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2

 (end logfile excerpt).


I used od to examine the first few bytes of libgcc1-test.o, and it 
is different from all the other .o files in the directory. 
Everything else starts with 014c 0005, but libgcc1-test.o begins
with 6001 0400.

I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed from here.  Can
anyone shed any light on this for me?
