Trouble compiling 2.2.10 on a Mips/R4x00 (Indy)

When cross-compiling 2.2.10 for use on an Indy, my compiler dies with
various "internal errors" (see the snippet below).

I am using the cross-compiler utilities (by Ralf Baechle) installed on an
i386 system.

One would suggest that this is probably related to a flaw in the compiler,
but I just wanted to make sure if the kernel could have anything to do  
with this?


If so:
is there a newer version of this crosscompiler available? (that is known
to work?), or are there perhaps other crosscompilers floating around
somewhere? 






Best regards,
Martin Andersen
