I tried a bunch of different promising toolchains, but to no avail.

But now I think I had SOME possible progress. I downloaded:
https://downloads.gumstix.com/feeds/archive/318M/uclibc/ipk/armv5te/g++_4.1.2-r7_armv5te.ipk
And from that archive I unpacked:
arm-angstrom-linux-uclibcgnueabi-g++
I copied that to my K1, and when running:
/mnt/us/arm-angstrom-linux-uclibcgnueabi-g++ -v
I got a DIFFERENT error message:
can't load library 'libiconv.so.2'

That seems a lot less cryptic than "not found" or "Segmentation fault", which are all I ever saw from anything else NOT copied directly from a K1 rootfs.

Considering that the K1 was largely Gumstix based (even with Gumstix references in the amazon GPL source code), it makes sense that binary packages from a Gumstix website would at least "try" to load and run. I suspect it WOULD run if I could find and install all the missing dependencies.

That seems like a modicum of progress...

With a bit of luck, I *might* be able to compile directly on the K1, but there are probably a ton of dependencies to resolve first.
