I'm so far out of touch I don't have the energy to shoot this down.

For the record, I don't agree with the changes. Seems to include a lot of 
the elements I argued strongly against some years ago.

IMHO
sysroot is fine for real cross compilation
sysroot not fine for hybrid cross/native scenarios a'la current LFS

There seems to be a lot of additional hacks required to prevent stuff 
being found on the host (check the diff).

BTW, you might want to check your facts re the newlib switch. This 
sentence is clearly wrong:

"This enables a very small standard C library that is included with GCC."

Good luck
Greg
