Support for compiling GLIBC for ARM GNU/Linux (arm-none-linux-gnueabi)
is provided by the ports add-on.
For example, the ports add-on of
glibc-2.12.2.tar.xz
is
glibc-ports-2.12.2.tar.gz
You need to download the ports tarball, unpack it, and symlink it into
your glibc directory as “ports”.
Then enable it (and NPTL) with the configuration option
--enable-add-ons=nptl,ports
.
