Ah, so you are compiling against a premade glibc for your target OS. That was the part I was missing. Last night I finally got it to work by compiling just binutils & gcc 4.5.1 w/ gmp, mpc, & mpfr linked in. I can now create a hello world app that runs on the real device, using static linking. Dynamic linking still fails, though. When I copy the lib directory to the device, change LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to it, then run the dynamically linked executable it complains that the lib elf is the wrong version. So something is still wonky, but I'm very happy to have gotten this far.
