Script to build a full cross-compilation toolchain from scratch

I'm trying to build a reliable ARM toolchain from scratch (see attached
script/archive for further information). After several days, I managed to
create that toolchain and I compiled a very simple C++ program. 

// main.cxx
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

int main(int ac, char const *av[])
{
    std::string app = av[0];

    std::cout << "APP: " << app << std::endl;
    for (int n = 1; n < ac; ++n) {
        std::cout << "\tARG" << n << ": " << av[n] << std::endl;
    }
}

When compiling with "armeb-edt-linux-gnueabi-g++ -o main main.cxx" everything
looks fine and the generated code seems legit. 

When compiling with "armeb-edt-linux-gnueabi-g++ -static -o main main.cxx", ld
fails with the following assertion: 

/home/edt/personnal/cross-compile/staging/armeb-edt-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib/gcc/armeb-edt-linux-gnueabi/4.7.3/../../../../armeb-edt-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld:
