Fwd: Re: uclib support for crosstools forward ported to 0.28-rc37

[Carl Miller <chaz at energoncube dot net>]

Forwarding to the list, because it appears not to have come across
the list yet, and my reply to it already has.  Axel, thanks for
alerting that you had reason to suspect it might not make it through.
And if it does, and it was just delayed, apologies to everyone else
for the dupe....

It's a conspiracy :)

OK, placed them under

    http://devel.atrpms.net/crosstool/

Let's hope this post makes it to the list. :/

In the Attic? That's a strange place for placing patches. Why are they
being wiped off the buildroot?

I already searched for something corresponding to the separate build
vs src dir hierarchy (like the Makefile relocate patch), but this
seems not to have been addressed within uClibc.
