Concerns ? comments?
I'm backing this. Currently multilib is broken and for a good
implementation we really needs a ground up proposal for how to handle it
well. I'm starting to look into the problem FWIW so I'd appreciate being
in the loop in any discussions.
I've run into multilib issues as well, but could always solve it on a
case by case base (e.g. on powerpc). But I agree it's currently a mess.
But what you need to keep in mind if you actually drop multilib support
is that you need to rename the prefix for the SDK toolchains.
It would be bad if PowerPC 32-bit and 64-bit toolchains were both named
powerpc-angstrom-linux-
