Building a toolchain and all the supporting software for use with K42 isn't 
exactly easy. If you can, I strongly suggest using one of Amos Waterland's 
K42 toolchain/library packages (for i386) from here:
http://www.cs.unm.edu/~k42/pub/k42-devkit

As for versions, in that package are a gcc-3.3.3 prerelease, binutils-2.14.90, 
and glibc 2.3.2. The version of linux being used is specific to K42, so you 
definitely need to get that from the k42-packages tree.
