Hi Grant,

I've recently tried to work again on integrating CodeSourcery
toolchains into Buildroot, but I'm facing issues related to multilib.
I've summed up these issues in the following post:

 http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2010-January/031421.html

If you have any idea on how to solve the issues, don't hesitate to tell
me.

Thanks!

Thomas
