Hi Ryan, Leif, I have reviewed and pushed Leif's patches (svn 2580 and svn 2581). The only change I did is I have not touched the ARMLINUXGCC toolchain. Only ARMGCC supports CROSS_COMPILE after this change.
What I would like to see in the long term is a generic cross-compiled GNU toolchain (without ARM in its name). It is a discussion I already had with Leif. I have done this patch (see attachment) we are using internally. I would like to validate with X86 architectures before to submit it to the Basetools mailing-list. The idea would be to use the existing ELFGCC as the cross-compiled toolchain. And delete the ARMGCC and ARMLINUXGCC toolchains from BaseTools.

Yes, this has been living in our tree for some time now and is working well for us. I'd like to see it merged into mainline, please :-) Does the maintainer have any feedback for the patches, eg, accepted or perhaps some comments?
