Steve/Stuart,

If I *really* want to build a toolchain for ARM Cortex-A8 with NEON support from scratch, using a later toolchain than the 4.1.2 on bitshrine.org, then I'm guessing I need to grab the tc-fsl-x86lnx-armeabi-nptl-4.1.2-3.src.rpm, but I'm a bit unclear on how to tweak/edit the RPM spec file to update the BINUTILS/GCC/GLIBC versions to later than 2.17/4.1.2/2.5, as well as execute the RPM (and where the FSF sources are expected) to build the toolchain into an RPM that is usable by LTIB.

Any suggestions (and perhaps the answer should be added to the FAQ)?

Thanks in advance!
