[Alan Cudmore]

When you run the configure command for the RTEMS source, make sure  
you specify powerpc-rtems4.8:

I use the script below to build RTEMS. It works on OS X.

#!/bin/bash

# Coldfire Development kit RTEMS build script version 2.0

#
# Which version of RTEMS are we building?
#
RTEMS_VERSION=4.9-cvs
# RTEMS_VERSION=4.9

#
# configure, build and install RTEMS
#
rm -rf build-rtems
mkdir build-rtems
cd build-rtems
$SOURCE_DIR/rtems-$RTEMS_VERSION/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix= 
$INSTALL_DIR --enable-posix --disable-itron --enable-networking -- 
enable-cxx || { echo "ERROR CONFIGURING RTEMS"; exit; }
make RTEMS_BSP="mcf5235" || { echo "ERROR BUILDING RTEMS"; exit; }
make RTEMS_BSP="mcf5235" install || { echo "ERROR INSTALLING RTEMS";  
exit; }
cd ..

echo "Done!"
