I tried to use crosstool-ng to generate a toolchain for Linux on big
endian arm with recent versions of gcc, glibc, etc... but had a few
problems.

It appears that the gcc patch (for gcc 4.2.x)
for big-endian arm (240-arm-bigendian.patch) lacks the change attached
to this mail as 240-arm-bigendian2.patch.
