The distro is not a pure NetWinder, it has been modified substantially
by CompuLab for the CM-X255 (ARMCore).

Could you elaborate a little more here on what should be done?  Are
you suggesting the creation of a bunch of links with 2.3 naming
pointed to glibc 2.2 files?  If that is the case I'm thinking this
would involve many symbolic links as opposed to one.

I think my CC is working, i've done a clean reinstall with the same
issues, and it does work x-compiling other applications.  The cross
compiler is also the latest one offered from CompuLab.  I could try
downloading it from the gcc site, however I'm not sure if any special
mods have been made to CompuLab's version that may be important for my
particular board.
