[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2 v3] toolchain: misc fixes (branch yem/toolchain-fixes)

[Yann E. MORIN]

Hello All!

This series introduces two fixes in the external toolchain handling:

  - reject "distro-class" toolchains, i.e. the  cross-oolchains packaged
    in Debian and its derivatives, since those toolchains are both
    non-relocatable and tainted with a lot of crap (i.e. non-libc
    libraries) which make them unfit for use by Buildroot;

  - try harder to find the gconv modules for those multi-arch
    toolchains, since there may be gconv modules for each variant, and
    thus would be located out-side the main sysroot.

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - update comment for distro-class toolchains  (Thomas, Arnout)
  - use TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PREFIX instead of asking gcc  (Thomas)


Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
