I've tried -march=i386.  Compiles, but still generates the ld errors.

ld -V
GNU ld version 2.15.92.0.2 20040927
  Supported emulations:
   elf_x86_64
   elf_i386
   i386linux

I tried passing this to the linker with:

CFLAGS='-O2 -m32 -Xlinker -melf_i386' ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ 
--target=i686-pc-linux-gnu

which is accepted, but I still get the ld errors as before.  If I set it to 
i386linux, configure fails:
configure:1985: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:1988: gcc -O2 -m32 -Xlinker -mi386linux   conftest.c  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--eh-frame-hdr'

Thanks,
Brian
