Dear Ulf,

According to the crosstool documentation at www.kegel.com:
Most combinations of gcc 3.x.x and binutils fails when you try to build a softfloat toolchain All tested combinations of gcc-4.x.x and binutils fails if softfloat is enabled. If you want to use gcc 4, you cannot build u-boot as is.
This is not correct. See for example ELDK 4.0: based on GCC 4.0, based on crosstool, and works just fine :-)
It is worth 10s of kB to be able to use a single toolchain to build u-boot, Linux and filesystem
Agreed. That's how we do it with the ELDK. I don't see why this should be impossible for others.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
