GCC cross-compile - undefined reference errors

Update 2: So the undefined reference to __end is this:

opt/i386-pc-coff/lib/ndp//libc.a(brk.o):(.data+0x0): undefined reference to `__end'

But when I do objdump of that libc.a file, I see it defined.

brk.o:     file format coff-i386

[  6](sec  0)(fl 0x00)(ty   0)(scl   2) (nx 0) 0x00000000 .cerror

So I don't really get what the error really means.

Update 1: It appears that gcc 3.1 and 3.2 have a bug in gcc/libgcc2.c where the macro EH_FRAME_SECTION_NAME triggers some #ifdef statements that shouldn't be triggered for coff and hms targets, according to this old email thread. I commented some bits out and now the undefined references to __EH_FRAME_BEGIN__ are gone. The undefined reference to __end still exists, but I am researching if an .ld linker script can't fix things.

Original Message: I am attempting to use my gcc cross-compiler for the first time with a simple Hello World program and I have encountered a number of road blocks. I am using gcc 3.2.3 with a i386-freebsd host, i386-pc-coff target, and binutils 2.19.1a. Everything was built with a prefix of "~/opt". I've placed the contents of /usr/include, /usr/lib, and /lib from my target machine into "~/opt/i386-pc-coff".

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
    puts("Hello World!");
}

When I attempt to use the standard startup files and libraries when linking, I receive the following error:

I am not using --sysroot because it isn't included in gcc 3. I'm not using gcc 4 or later because both *-coff and *-sysv targets were deprecated. Thoughts?
