Thanks, I've applied all patches, except "support/test-pkg: add option
to use an alternate toolchains CSV file", and replied to this one with
the explanation.

I only did a quick review, because the general direction is definitely
the right one, and I trust you to be there to fix issues :-)

Thanks for doing this, it was long overdue, and will definitely ease
the maintenance of autobuilder exceptions, and opens the path to
testing multiple branches.

Thanks!

Thomas
