If we don't do this, the SDK target sysroot is named generically even

In gcc-configure-sdk.inc, it is set 
"--with-sysroot=${SDKPATH}/sysroots/${TARGET_SYS}".
Is there any inconsistency?

Binutils might also need updating.

This is an interesting question. We certainly compile in a default path
for the sysroot but we in general always override it from the
environment anyway.

As long as the package architectures for the sdk components are correct
we should be able to update the defaults. I've not yet checked that
though.

This is something which gets built into
gcc-cross-canadian-${TARGET_ARCH} (i.e i586/armpowerpc). Since we use
the target libs (inc libgcc) and everything in that package is multiple
platform enabled, I think the current behaviour is correct. It might
point an an invalid default sysroot but its up to the package
architecture specific environment files to correct that. This means the
one toolchain can be shared over multiple package architectures.

I'm open to other views of that but I think what we have there is
correct and should work with the above change.

On a related thought to these changes - how does this play if
you use multiple SDKs for different, but somewhat related, architectures?
I'd like to create a simple SDK (just toolchain mostly) using 'meta-toolchain'
for both armv5te and armv7a and install them simultaneously on the same
host.  My previous attempts at this fell flat as there were a number of
files marked as "arm" (i.e. not armv5te or arvm7a) that were common between
the two SDK packages, but they didn't seem to be identical.

With these changes, will it be possible to support such sets of multiple
toolchains?  (No, ADT is not the answer - I just want the toolchains)

Thanks

(sorry if this seems I hijacked your thread - my question is related to
what you are discussing here)
