Thanks for your input. Coming from the microcontroller world, I must
admit this is over my head. I do not understand these error messages.
There might be a possible fault in the toolchain?
I downloaded a complete toolchain package from the moxa website, the
manufacturer for this embedded computer. Do I have any alternatives to
try, or can I compile my own toolchain (when I do not know what I am
doing)?

I have tried on several machines, both at work and home. All with the
same result, despite different installs. I had only one thing in my
mind, all the machines was 64-bit and all was debian/ubuntu derivates.
Installing the toolchain on a 32-bit linux machine, maybe with Fedora,
might be an interesting test, or a waste of time?
