Huh, you must have misunderstood what I wrote, or it wasn't clear.

My point was precisely that we want to avoid sync'ing them. But to
achieve that the autobuild-run script needs to be changed to use base
toolchain configs from the Buildroot tree rather than through the
CSV file downloaded from autobuild.b.o. And I'm exactly saying that we
need to change the autobuild-run script at the same time as we move
base toolchain configs in the tree, otherwise we have duplication.
