Cross Compiling problems

so, my output from the compiler is correct, but during compilation it is using the wrong assembler. how do i get make to use the correct assembler. i tried to set the path in a config file.

path=/cygdrive/c/altera/......../nios2-elf-as:($path)

export path

i bombed after trying to make again. i got

*** recursive variable 'path' references itself (eventually)

I think that should be

$ PATH=/home/user/path/compiler/bin/:$PATH

$ export PATH

You shouldn't put the binary in the PATH variable, only the location of the binary (directory).

As for the rest, I don't really know what's wrong. Can you compile a simple "hello world" program with your toolchain? If not, your installation of the toolchain must be bad.
