[Buildroot] Libraries built with buildroot can only be used by buildroot itself.

Hi,
** In below example, I will talk directfb libraries, but I am afraid it it
not specific to directfb but a more general case.
Using buildroot and BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CODESOURCERY_ARM201203, I got
build with some graphics libraries (in my case, these are direct frame
buffer libraries, i.e., BR2_PACKAGE_DIRECTFB). Then I want to use these
cross compiled libraries to cross compile my own written very simple
directfb application code.
What I did is:
crossroot=/home/woody/buildroot-2013.05/
output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabi/sysroot
rm -f *.o hline
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -I ${crossroot}/usr/include/directfb \
-D_GNU_SOURCE -o hline.o -c hline.c
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -I ${crossroot}/usr/include/directfb \
-D_GNU_SOURCE -o hline hline.o -ldirectfb -L ${crossroot}/usr/lib
In case one, I set my path to use the gcc from my own Codesourcery
installation, which is the same version as that buildroot is using.
Actually, this Codesourcery installation is a direct uncompress from the
tarball that buildroot downloaded from net to its download directory.
In case two, I set my path to use the gcc directly in buildroot, i.e,
under /home/woody/buildroot-2013.05/host/usr/bin
In case two, it built with success. But case one, it did not:
/home/woody/arm-2012.03/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.6.3/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /lib/libc.so.6 when searching for /lib/libc.so.6
/home/woody/arm-2012.03/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.6.3/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find /lib/libc.so.6
/home/woody/arm-2012.03/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.6.3/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a when searching for /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a
/home/woody/arm-2012.03/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.6.3/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a
/home/woody/arm-2012.03/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.6.3/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find /lib/ld-linux.so.3
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I don't understand why the error happened. It seems the cross compiler
of buildroot understood things correctly, but the same cross compiler
install by myself did not.
Can anyone please give me hint?
