Hi all and happy new year,
IMPORTANT FOR ARM KERNEL PACKAGERS:
You will need to apply this patch to your kernel with this new Mer and
toolchain release, if your kernels break on boot (they likely will). It
will enable -mno-unaligned-access in your kernel compilation flags.

IMPORTANT FOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS:
GCC 4.6.3 / binutils 2.22 is much more picky than it's previous
versions. If you use a symbol from a library,
make really really sure you are linking to it too!! Previously it
allowed you to use symbols from libraries that
your linked libraries happen to link to, but it no longer allows this.
The benefit is that the library interfaces
are much more solid and so are dependencies. This is a global gcc
change and will occur in your favourite distros soon
too - ie, it's not Mer specific.
You will see errors like:
/usr/bin/ld: foo1.o: undefined reference to symbol 'foo'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'foo' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/foo.so.1 so try
adding it to the linker command line
which means you need to patch your code to add -lfoo to your linker flags.
