Patchwork Trouble compiling tint payload

I'm having trouble compiling the tint payload.

When following the instructions on the wiki at http://www.coreboot.org/Tint, I 
get an error about lpgcc. I've figured out I need to make the following change 
to the Makefile:



After that, I try to compile with
make CC=/.../coreboot/util/crossgcc/xgcc/bin/i386-elf-gcc
and get the following errors:

If instead of `make CC=/.../coreboot/util/crossgcc/xgcc/bin/i386-elf-gcc` I 
simply call `make`, I get:

...which seems to indicate that the compilation has progressed farther but then 
failed for not having 32bit libgcc (as expected as my system compiler is 64bit).

I'm running Gentoo Linux on an x86_64 machine with no 32-bit libraries, and no 
kernel support for 32-bit binaries. System gcc is 4.4.3, system ld is 
2.20.1.20100303.

Any clues to what I'm doing wrong?

I figured out the problem right after sending this: when I set $CC, it 
overwrites the makefile variable that tells it to use lpgcc, so lpgcc isn't 
getting used.

I changed all occurrences of "CC" in the tint makefile to "MYCC", and it 
compiled correctly.

Is there a less hackish way I should solve it, and then submit a patch? Or does 
someone who knows what they're doing better want to take care of it?

Hi Andrew,

I have some patches for tint to add xcompile and some other build
changes to match what has gone into libpayload. I'll try to post them
later today.

This patch is based on Uwe's, but patching a patch seems odd to me, so
here is a new patch that builds on the previous one. Start with a
clean tint0.03b and put it in the coreboot payloads directory. You no
longer need to build libpayload. The make handles it for you.


Add default libpayload build, xcompile, and lpgcc setup to tint.

Let me know how it goes.
