Compostion of Combined Folders

Several folders are duplicated across the various project comprising the toolchain. By appropriately mixing and matching folder versions, it is possible to establish a combined source folder through which a single, combined build can be executed.

Additionally, by implementing two minor tweaks to binutil’s bfd (adding BFD_HOSTPTR_T and bfd_fopen()), GDB 6.8 can also be included in combined builds.

Creating Folders for Combined Builds

The following folders were sym-linked in to create the corresponding directories under the combined source folder (sym-combined), which is then used as the source folder for builds. (Note in particular that the GCC libs from GCC 4.4.7 are used with the combined GCC 3 build.)
