Re: [Buildroot] crosstools build fails when hard fpu is selected

[Thierry Bultel <thierry dot bultel at wanadoo dot fr>]

Thanks Thomas,

thanks to Yann's advice,
I have been able to generate an ARM gcc with Neon support,
and performed some performance testing on my target.
( the root filesystem is for now the one with soft float).

But this is an external crosstool-ng (1.17.0) build.

Thus I have attempted to configure Buildroot to use this
external toolchain.

The build fails at ncurses (see below)

I thought that is was due to the fact that the "Use soft float by 
default" option was not available when using an external toolchain (why 
?) but I have the same issue when crosstol-ng is built within buildroot 
(and the option deselected of course)

I am still investigating, but if you have a clue I would appreciate

Thanks
Thierry
