mips linux glibc-2.3.3 build - linker errors

Hi,

glibc-2.3.3 build on linux-mips breaks down with following linker error:

I tried to compare against the latest CVS - the files have involved have seemed to be renamed/deleted etc. So it is difficult to follow the changes.

Does somebody know to a fix to get ahead?

More information follows.

ar -d lib_pic.a strtold.os

got me be beyond this point. (If somebody knows that this is not the way to do it - let me know.)
