if you're like me, getting toolchains known to work has always been
problematic for the arches you don't care about. yes, there's the ELDK, but
that doesn't cover all the arches that u-boot supports, and imo, they're
"fatter" than necessary.
to that end, i've started posting toolchain builds here:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/u-boot/
~5MiB d/l is nice :)
when possible, i built them which means they're recent: binutils-2.21.1 and
gcc-4.6.2. they were also built on an older glibc (2.4), so they should be
usable on quite a lot of recent (and not so recent) systems. and i've
statically linked in all the 3rd party libraries to avoid cross-distro issues
(mpfr/gmp/mpc/etc...).
is there interest/possibility of posting these to denx ftp and then putting
the URL into the wiki/README ? or perhaps the MAKEALL script when it can't
find a usable toolchain ...

nice but MAKEALL mips throws warnings for each board

For current upstream MIPS support in U-Boot the toolchain should be
built completely with soft-float.
