RE: [arm-gnu] cannot execute cross compilers

["Casey MacDonald (Contractor)" <casey.macdonald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Kishore, great comment. Turns out I am running a 64bit version of
Ubuntu and sure enough, the Code Sorcery notes mention the need for 32
bit libraries to be installed.  

Now, I'm off to figure out what libraries I need.

Are you running 64 bit ubuntu? If yes then you might need the 32 bit
support 
libraries installed.
