  This says that your cross-compiler cannot find libc.a. To
cross-compile GNU Mach, you have to install libc.a into somewhere. In
my environment, my cross-compiler just looks at my GNU/Hurd partition:

$ mount
/dev/sda1 on /gnu type ext2fs (rw)
...
$ ls -l /usr/local/i586-gnu/lib
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root	root	8 Sep  3  1998 /usr/local/i586-gnu/lib
-> /gnu/lib/
$ ls /gnu/lib/libc.a
/gnu/lib/libc.a

  I haven't used the debian packages for cross-compiler, but nearly
the same way should be possible.
