     1.6 +reporter_comment="This is a sample config file for Freescale e500v2 processors (e.g.,
     1.7 +MPC8548, MPC8572).  It uses eglibc (for e500/SPE patches) and a recent
     1.8 +gcc (4.3.1, for e500v2 DPFP support) and will generate appropriate
     1.9 +dual-precision floating point instructions by default.

    1.11 +Note: If building a Linux kernel with this toolchain, you will want to
    1.12 +make sure -mno-spe AND -mspe=no are passed to gcc to prevent SPE
    1.13 +ABI/instructions from getting into the kernel (which is currently
    1.14 +unsupported).  At this time, the kernel build system only passes
    1.15 +-mno-spe by default (this should be fixed soon hopefully).

    1.17 +A binutils snapshot is used to fix a bug present in 2.18 preventing
    1.18 +U-Boot from being compiled (CodeSourcery issue #2297: internal.h
    1.19 +(ELF_IS_SECTION_IN_SEGMENT): Adjust to cope with segments at the end of
    1.20 +memory)."
