That just means that you want the toolchain to reflect the same
headers as the kernel you want to build for M5. So, if for M5 you
want to use kernel 2.6.22, then you should build your toolchain with
those headers so they won't be incompatible when you actually build
the kernel, so no need to go back to 2.6.13 if you are running
2.6.22, you're in luck!

The wiki says the following:
"Modify the gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5.dat so that the linux version it
points to reflects the Linux headers you want to use in your
toolchain.
Currently in M5 we are using linux-2.6.13, so you should set it
accordingly."
When running the demo-alpha.sh script, it looks for the headers
tarball
in the $TARBALLS_DIR.
Thanks for your help!

Where do we say you need the 2.6.13 headers? It's been a couple of
months since I used crosstools, but if I remember correctly it grabs
all the files it needs to compile and you shouldn't have to get
anything manually.
