But I don't see any reference to this so...

when I build alsa-lib I get a warning about Unknown EABI object attribute 44

And when I use the resulting libsound.a I get errors (saying similar things about the EABI)

arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv6j -mtune=arm1136jf-s -mfpu=vfp --sysroot=/arm -Wall -Wno-implicit -Wno-long-long -fstrength-reduce -fthread-jumps -fcse-follow-jumps -fcse-skip-blocks -frerun-cse-after-loop -O2 -ffast-math -pipe -fPIC -s lcd.o refresh.o lcdc.o palette.o cpu.o mem.o rtc.o hw.o sound.o events.o keytable.o loader.o save.o debug.o emu.o main.o rccmds.o rckeys.o rcvars.o rcfile.o exports.o split.o path.o inflate.o sys/nix/nix.o sys/fbdev/fbdev.o sys/linux/kindleinput.o sys/alsa/alsa.o -o fbgnuboy -lasound

Code:
/arm/usr/lib/libasound.a(pcm_dshare.o): In function `snd_pcm_dshare_start_timer':
pcm_dshare.c:(.text+0x108): warning: 
/opt/arm-2007q3/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.2.1/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: Warning: /arm/usr/lib/libasound.a(timer_symbols.o): Unknown EABI object attribute 44
the TC is the 2007q3 CodeSourcery one.

So I guess I am asking for some pointers on figuring out these types of errors

(the alsa lib ver is /usr/local/src/alsa-lib-1.0.25/src)

thanks
I would first suspect that your binutils version is too old.
You should be able to update just those without re-building the compiler itself.
