problems building glibc for s390

[William Jay Huie]

        I am trying to produce a glibc rpm by using a spec file based off of SLES-8 as my basis. However, I'm having problems building glibc from source by hand also. This is with glibc-2.3.2 and the linuxthreads addon. I know you're more concerned with glibc bugs then spec file problems, but I don't think it's a problem specifically in my spec file.

        With the spec file glibc is reporting errors when configuring.

+ ../configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-add- --srcdir=.. --without-cvs --enable-kernel=2.2.5 --build=s390-ibm-linux-gnu --host=s390-ibm-linux-gnu --target=s390-ibm-linux-gnu --with-headers=/usr/include ' '

configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: invalid host type:
checking build system type... s390-ibm-linux-gnu
checking host system type... s390-ibm-linux-gnu

        Note that I've got --built, --host, and --target all set to what I believe is a correct setting. I was previously using "s390-suse-linux" (assumed from SuSE' s spec file) but I changed it to exactly what configure finds and it still doesn't seem to work.
        One concern I have is that it seems to be truncating my last argument to ../configure I have "s390-suse-linux" in the spec but rpm adds a ' ' there and doesn't seem to pass it.
        Here's the glibc.spec file entry;

mkdir cc
(cd cc
 CFLAGS="$BuildFlags" CC="$BuildCC" ../configure --prefix=%{_prefix} \
        --libexecdir=%{_libdir} --infodir=%{_infodir} \
        --enable-add- --srcdir=.. --without-cvs \
        --enable-kernel=$EnableKernel \
        --build=s390-ibm-linux-gnu \
        --host=s390-ibm-linux-gnu \
        --target=s390-ibm-linux-gnu \
        --with-headers="/usr/include" \
        s390-suse-linux \
        )

        The fact that the last entry is getting lost does worry me though.        

        The major error in the build occurs later with this;

        This is what seems to be holding me up. 
        I'm sure this has been built before so it's probably something with my environment but I have no idea what it might be.
        
        I'm currently running a 2.4.21 kernel, and I have the following links in /usr/include;
                linux -> /usr/src/linux/include/linux
                asm -> /usr/src/linux/include/asm
                asm-s390 -> /usr/src/linux/include/asm-s390
                asm-s390x -> /usr/src/linux/include/asm-s390x
        
        Where /usr/src/linux is the code that I built my currently running kernel from.

        When building from hand I get the same error.

        Hopefully you have an idea of what's going wrong. I apprecaite your help,
