   Did a clean configure and build.

		   === ld tests ===

   FAIL: bootstrap
   FAIL: bootstrap with --static
   FAIL: bootstrap with --traditional-format
   FAIL: bootstrap with --no-keep-memory

   FAIL: cdtest
   FAIL: cdtest with -Ur

		   === ld Summary ===

   # of expected passes            12
   # of unexpected failures        6

I would guess that these are because there is no entry in
ld/configure.host for sparc-unknown-linux-gnulibc1.  If the linker is
able to successfully link a program when invoked by gcc, then I
wouldn't worry about these errors.

See the other linux-gnu and linux*libc1 entries in ld/configure.host
for possible examples of how to set HOSTING_CRT0 and HOSTING_LIBS on
your system.  I don't know what's right.

I don't plan to worry about this for the 2.9 release.
