The simplest solution is to use an external toolchain. I already used a
Codesource glibc-based toolchain with Buildroot, and it worked nicely.
The only needed modification were :
* Modifications to get external toolchains to work (I have sent a
patch recently for this)
* Specifying the proper values for the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIB_C and
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS configuration variables.
If you want to *generate* a glibc-toolchain with Buildroot, it is
probably going to be a more tedious work. But if you happen to do that,
please submit patches!
Sincerly,
Thomas
