So what is the purpose of the Snapgear project at this point?   I've always 
thought of Snapgear as basically being uClinux extended to MMU-ful processors, 
but if the regular uClinux distribution now supports that, what's special about 
Snapgear?   

I've never tried to use the raw uClinux-dist by itself, so please excuse me if 
there's a fairly obvious answer to this question.  If I used uClinux-dist by 
itself, would I be responsible for providing a toolchain and compatible 
uClibc/glibc?   If this is the case, I can seen an advantage in Snapgear, since 
it provides all of this.
