This seems to be an issue with the Makefile configure that comes with the version of gcc-6 you selected.

I manually downloaded 7.5.0, extracted it to /src and changed $VERSION in ./build-gcc.sh in order to successfully build.

More detail:
GCC 6.x uses its own configure script to generate its Makefile.
It uses an internal variable called $PWD_COMMAND to ensure it runs 'pwd' successfully.
The code it generates to assign PWD_COMMAND is faulty. I don't know how to fix this for GCC 6 so I just upgraded to see if it would fix it, and it did.

pi@raspberrypi:~/Projects/m68k-elf-gcc/m68k-toolchain/bin $ ./m68k-elf-gcc-7.5.0 ~/Projects/asmtest/main.c
/home/pi/Projects/m68k-elf-gcc/m68k-toolchain/lib/gcc/m68k-elf/7.5.0/../../../../m68k-elf/bin/ld: cannot find -lc
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

for some reason libc.so is not created with gcc 7, so still stuck.

CC=m68k-elf-gcc 
OBJCOPY=m68k-elf-objcopy
LIBFIX=-nostdlib

main.bin: main.elf main.s
	${OBJCOPY} -O binary main.elf main.bin

%.elf: %.s
	${CC} ${LIBFIX} -o main.elf main.s

%.s: %.c
	${CC} -S ${LIBFIX} -o main.s main.c

clean:
	rm -rf *.bin *.elf *.s

despite the redundancy making the .s file, using this make (i.e. using -nostdlib) allows me to compile on Debian/pi.

Is there a way to build gcc so that -nostdlib isn't required on every compile?
