[Buildroot] Buildroot] [PATCH 08/10] linux: adjust kernel config according to the Buildroot configuration

[Nataraj S Narayan]

Hi

I was using  atmel patched kernel 2.6.30 on at91sam9263 Sbc with
CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT=y default.  But when disabled, my freepascal (
ww.freepascal.org) binanies wouldnt work.

Maybe fpc dont generate  fully EABI for arm-uclibc.


regards

Nataraj
