Coming back again with Buildroot, which both has a nice kconfig
interface *and* up-to-date packages (for most of them) and Blackfin
support. And I am personally interested in seeing more improvements
made to Buildroot to better support non-MMU arches.
Compared to uClinux-dist, I also think that Buildroot has a more active
developer/user community.
