I have binutils ready too alongwith the arch specific bits
(libc/sysdeps/linux/arch).

Hmm. The toolchain supports both MMU and NOMMU. It is also utilised for
building both linux and uclinux and it uses soft float.

Most definitely it doth! :)

I do not need STL or c++ either.

I realised that when I used buildroot for the arm as a test. But I saw
that there was an arm-gcc and an arm-uclibc-gcc that was generated and
so I assumed that it was still a wrapper. Neat though.

Anything else, in particular ?

Thank you Manuel.
