Don't bother, they are old...
The predefined toolchain in the buildroot trunk contains newer stuff.

Checked, and I now know the problem.
It is in the "target/device/Toolchain.in" file.


  BR2_VENDOR_SITE is wrong...

replace 
$(BR2_ATMEL_MIRROR)
with
"$(BR2_ATMEL_MIRROR)/Source"

so it reads:

config BR2_VENDOR_SITE
	string
	default "$(BR2_ATMEL_MIRROR)/Source" if 

Will fix this ASAP.
