Summary:                    Buildroot fails to build a toolchain for SH4
Description: 
Buildroot seems to be broken for SH4.
I tried different versions of gcc but they all fail at the same place.
Also it would be nice to set uClibc to default to little endian for sh4.
Anyways this is where it fails: 

if [ -d "/home/mastag/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/usr/lib64" ] ; then
\
                if [ ! -e
"/home/mastag/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/usr/lib" ] ; then \
                        mkdir
"/home/mastag/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/usr/lib" ; \
                fi ; \
                mv
"/home/mastag/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/usr/lib64/"*
"/home/mastag/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/usr/lib/" ; \
                rmdir

        fi
