Subject: Enable building soft float buildroot for gcc 3.3.  Currently works for
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d632d42b34888f169a9394f2c5ce64ccca75a5cb;p=buildroot.git

Enable building soft float buildroot for gcc 3.3.  Currently works for
  i386 (limited to 64 bit long double... same as double), arm (libfloat),
  mips, and mipsel.
Enable cross compiling a native gcc 3.3 toolchain to run on the target.
Misc rootfs cleanups... strip some things that weren't, eliminate duplicate
  libs, move openssl shared libs out of /lib, reduce size of libssl.so
  by dynamicly linking with libcrypto.so, fix dropbear compile on mips.
