Awesome!  A few things though:
1) I downloaded the SDK, for which I thought I was only supposed to be able to make Win32, Linux, and Mac with it? I didn't upgrade to premium or anything, just went through with the free version, but there doesn't seem to be anything preventing me from building for any of the other systems (notably Pandora :D).  Is that a mistake or did I misunderstand?
2) Pandora output is a .PND file but it's really just an executable.  PND files aren't executables, they're ISOs (or squashfs files) containing executable and data files, with a special XML file concatenated onto the end (and included within the ISO itself).  The XML tells the Pandora how to load the PND file (notably which file is the executable, what icon to use, etc...) so it can make a menu item for it automatically.  That being said, I was able to run the resulting PND file as just a regular executable.  Brilliant!
3) Those warnings are not strictly a problem but they are annoying.  I took the liberty of pulling the respective files off my Pandora and bundling them up here.  Just drop them into the arm-none-linux-gnueabi\libc\lib directory and the warnings disappear.

It still needs some work, or perhaps the applications themselves need to be adjusted, but I see a lot of awesome potential here.

Congratulations :)
I hope it goes well.  If you have any other problems, feel free to stop into the official (http://boards.openpandora.org/) or unofficial (http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/forum/61-pandora/) forums.  Plenty of good people there always willing to help :)

Hi,
someone directed me here from the Pandora forum. :)
I've got a Pandora that I frequently compile on, as well I've got a full cross compiler setup on my desktop.  What is it you need, how can I help?
