I need a help for installing cross compiler for alpha

Dear All,

I need to produce OSF alpha binaries to use them by SimpleScalar. I downloaded
crosstool from this website and tried to install gcc ,... as a cross compiler.
I have FEDORA RELEASE 7 on my computer and my system is running gcc 4.1.2-12. I
selected alpha-dec-osf3.2 and for the version of gcc and glibc I
selected  gcc-2.95.3-glibc-2.2.5.dat but the process ended with the following
error.

I also tried gcc-3.2.3-glibc-2.3.2 for alpha-dec-osf4. the same errors occured.
Would you please help me with this problem.
