Hello,

I have been trying to build osmocom but have been getting errors in doing so.

Firstly, I downloaded the following file," binutils-2.16.1, gcc-4.0.2-c-c++, newlib-1.14.0, insight-6.4, TAR BZ2 [65.5MB]" under GCC-4.0 toolchain from www.gnuarm.com and extracted this to my home folder.

Secondly, I gave the following path "export PATH=/gnuarm-4.0.2/arm-elf/
bin:$PATH" in terminal window. Afterwards when I entered "make" under "/osmosom-bb/src", I got the following errors
