i'm trying to build an emdedded distro for arm machine following the

SVN-0.0.1-20081203-arm'
At the moment i'm not able to build uClibc-0.9.30-rc3 like explained on 
chapter
'6.8. uClibc-0.9.30-rc3'.

I had the same problems when doing my first try.

Concerning -m just do a "man gcc" and search for the ARM Options. There 
you will find several possibilities.
I've choosen "-mabi=aapcs-linux" but I also do not know if this is the 
best one.

Concerning your compile problems:
Try "arm-unknown-linux-uclibc" instead of "armv5l-unknown-linux-uclibc". 
The ARM V5 also runs with the ARM. I've got the same errors with the V5 
but they're gone with the generic ARM.

Have you been able to compile the binutils-2.19?
I had a problem with this packet. In detail with the file
binutils-2.19/gas/config/tc-arm.c

Kind regards

PS: I wrote my findings in the support list :-)
