No. I meant to say that you should use the foreign-toolchain procedure
exactly as described on the wiki, with the small addition that you
have to make the gcc-4.1-debian directory analogous to the ones SB
already supplies for gcc-3.3-debian and gcc-3.4-debian. There's not
really much there: a changelog, skeleton control files, and a rules
file (if memory serves).

The normal foreign toolchain import procedure (make -C
meta/alien-tc/myconfig.conf) will (or *should*) automatically build
those auxiliary tools.

Assuming that the problem is not a result of the missing
gcc-4.1-debian directory, can you elaborate?
