Interesting.  I can't find the source file you mention (ld-callob.c);
can you check the filename?   Is it generated during the build?

For what it's worth, here's a link that discusses this error message:
   http://gcc.gnu.org/PR11442
Sounds like a glibc issue, offhand.

I haven't tried --with-cpu=iwmmxt myself.  It's fairly new
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-06/msg02098.html)
so perhaps nobody's built glibc with it yet.

gcc-3.4-20040225 builds fine for me here, though I haven't tried
testing the resulting toolchain.
Here is a patch to crosstool to add the needed files.

You might also need to give crosstool an arm-iwmmxt.config for
the kernel, and change arm-iwmmxt.dat to reference that instead
of arm.config.  If you find this is the case, please send me the
kernel config file you end up using.

problem while building arm-linux-gcc using with-cpu=iwmmxt

[add]

Has anybody here before buiding gcc-3.4 cvs version using --with-cpu=iwmmxt
option?
I'm doing this based on dan's crosstool-0.27.
Finally I found out the bootstrap gcc has problem to build glibc-2.3.2 while
processing glibc/locale/ld-callob.c
it will say:
/tmp/ccWwfxuD.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccWwfxuD.s:6430: Error: bad immediate value for offset (4128)
/tmp/ccWwfxuD.s:6435: Error: bad immediate value for offset (4112)

while using option --with-cpu=xscale, it will be ok. So I think this is
related to iwmmxt specific codes in gcc-3.4-cvs.

Who succeeded to build iwmmxt gcc-3.4, pls raise your hand ok? thanks!
