Yup, got that right.

Now using the repository head -

The cross-uClibc will not build with "gnu-hash" option unless the host binutils
already support "gnu-hash" (??) - Easy, I just disable that and pretended I 
didn't get the message.

ltrace does not build - just disabled it for now.
mii-diag-2.11 does not build - just disable it for now.
We already know about sstrip - I bug reported that one (I think).

nand_{erase,lock,unlock) in BB-1.15.2 does not build.

continuing...
will go back and investigate those things *later*.

Mike
