Just a note, you can skip the entire portion dealing with the binutils
if you install the binutils-multiarch package, which can handle objects
from any of binutils supported architecures. This means you only need
to build the cross-compiler itself.
You may also want to look at the gcc-m68k cross compiler from hamm (it
used gcc 2.7.2.3) which is what I used to build my i386->sparc cross
compiler for kernels (just changed m68k to sparc in the debian/rules
file). The same rules file could possibly be used for egcs with some
tweaking.
