I'm in the same kind of situation as Rob, I want to have my *own* distribution running on
the board. I don't care as much about standard sources as Rob, maybe I'm a bit more
pragmatic :)
The fun starts when you have to build a avr32 gcc and bfin gcc from the same source. An
excerpt from the patch that Atmel distributes (for gcc 4.0.2):
- -| avr-* \
- -| bfin-* | bs2000-* \
+| avr-* | avr32-* \
+| bs2000-* \
ehm... that's 'special'
