RE: building native arm/xscale toolchain via cross compiler

["Jiang, Dave" <dave dot jiang at intel dot com>]

Ken,
  I have the cross compiler built already. But I've yet to come across
anything that would build the native toolchain nicely and I don't
believe crosstool does that yet. I know uclibc scripts do it but the
native compiler built doesn't work. 

I think the main problem I had with the native toolchain on XScale is
that XScale has no HW FP, however, the toolchains I've attempted to
build always had the problem where it would complain about HW FP even
with the soft-float flag passed in during building when I compile apps
later on....
