I had trouble compiling the toolchain in cygwin, the issue was with binutils failing with this error:

<pre>

I managed to fix this with a dirty HACK on pex-unix.c to include the correct value, in retrospect I should have just defined it. You can replace patches/binutils-2.22-PS3.patch with this (you might wan't to clean the unpacked files out of your build/ dir first):
