I have a hunch the problem may be a little more basic :-)...

Surely it must have said something a little more than that? What were the 
previous few lines of output?

This isn't the way to build. It should be something like:
arm-elf-gcc -g /path/to/your/install/tree/install/include hello.c 
-L/path/to/your/install/tree/install/lib -Ttarget.ld -nostdlib

i.e. don't take the documentation literally about what to type - you have 
to substitute in things to reflect your environment! Also there were typos 
in what you quoted above, so make sure you type things carefully!

This is of course assuming you already have built eCos, although I suspect 
you haven't yet! For that, read Andrew's mail.
