Steve,

	The only thing I can suggest is "strace". It should show you

Actually, I have been contemplating setting up this very same thing. I
do all my development at work under Solaris w/ gcc. It would be really
handy to have a cross compiler and environment on my laptop. Obviously
I would not be able to run anything, but it would make life easier
when I'm at a client's site.
