I'm assuming you're using musl-gcc to compile m4, gmp, mpfr, mpc, binutils(!), and gcc.

You're almost there! All you have to do is tell musl where to find shared libraries. From the documentation:

../etc/ld-musl-$(ARCH).path, taken relative to the location of the "program interpreter" specified in the program's headers - if present, this will be processed as a text file containing the shared library search path, with components delimited by newlines or colons. If absent, a default path of"/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib" will be used. Not used by static-linked programs.

You need make that file and put /root/cross/i686-linux-musl/lib in there. You compiled gcc fine, but the new gcc's backend isn't running because it can't find the shared libraries you compiled earlier because they aren't in a standard path.
