Ah right! I wasn't sure about that, thanks.
I have managed to build with arm-iwmmxt-linux-gnu, where iwmmxt as the vendor
string is picked up by my ebuild scripts to pass the iwmmxt target flags.
Given my objective, am I wrong to try to make a tool chain that targets
xscale-iwmmxt-linux-gnueabi specifically or do you just consider it unnecessary
effort?
