I'm trying to compile crossdev toolchain for mipsel

Code:
#  crossdev --gcc 3.3.6 --libc 2.2.5 --target mipsel-pc-linux-gnu
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Host Portage ARCH:     x86
 * Target Portage ARCH:   mips
 * Target System:         mipsel-pc-linux-gnu
 * Stage:                 4 (C/C++ compiler)

 * binutils:              binutils-[latest]
 * gcc:                   gcc-3.3.6
 * headers:               mips-headers-[latest]
 * libc:                  glibc-2.2.5

 * PORTDIR_OVERLAY:       /usr/local/portage
 * PORT_LOGDIR:           /var/log/portage
 * PKGDIR:                /usr/portage/packages/cross/mipsel-pc-linux-gnu
 * PORTAGE_TMPDIR:        /var/tmp/cross/mipsel-pc-linux-gnu
  _  -  ~  -  _  -  ~  -  _  -  ~  -  _  -  ~  - 
 * Log: /var/log/portage/cross-mipsel-pc-linux-gnu-binutils.log
 * Emerging cross-binutils ...                                                                   [ ok ]
 * Log: /var/log/portage/cross-mipsel-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-stage1.log
 * Emerging cross-gcc-stage1 ...                                                      [ ok ]

 * Emerging cross-mips-headers ...                                                  [ ok ]
 * Log: /var/log/portage/cross-mipsel-pc-linux-gnu-glibc.log
 * Emerging cross-glibc ...

 * glibc failed :(
 * If you file a bug, please attach the following logfiles:
 * /var/log/portage/cross-mipsel-pc-linux-gnu-info.log
 * /var/log/portage/cross-mipsel-pc-linux-gnu-glibc.log
#


the problem is that glibc wants threads in gcc but stage1 gcc is compiled with --disable-threads

I look at toolchain.eclass I see this comment
Code:

        # When building a stage1 cross-compiler (just C compiler), we have to
        # disable a bunch of features or gcc goes boom
 

why?
What should I do ? enable threads in toolchain.eclass and just live with that?

Ummm... why gcc 3.3.6? Wouldn't 3.4.4 be more appropriate?

Also, that version of glibc is ancient too... Better to use something more recent like 2.3.5.
