Hi Charles,

thanks for the build log - yes the 18 failures are expected for 4.1.2.
I don't think 4.1.2 will build natively on the PI, however you might
be able to configure it as a cross compiler for the arm.

There is a 4.1.2 avr cross compiler package - which should give
some hints on the configure parameters - or I could dig them out
if you are interested.

The 4.7.3 based gm2 will build successfully on an Odroid U3 (in about 59
minutes), once I've sorted out the library builds I plan to release an
arm binary via the Odroid - which will hopefully run on the PI.  Other
than that I'll be cross compiling as well for the atmega and arm devices
using the 4.7.3 release

regards,
Gaius
