This has been a relatively calm release cycle. Of noteworthy new
features we have:
- External toolchain improvements: We now build a binary toolchain
wrapper and install it into HOST_DIR/usr/bin, which enforces the
correct compiler arguments, making an external toolchain as easy to
use outside of Buildroot as the internal ones are. This also
brought a cleanup of CFLAGS, making the Buildroot build output
easier to read. With this change, we are one step closer to being
able to create a real Buildroot SDK.
- Rootfs device handling improvements: Choice between static /dev,
devtmpfs and devtmpfs with either mdev or udev.
- Toolchain: More preconfigured codesourcery external toolchains,
improved Crosstool-NG support, fix for GCC snapshot versions, GCC
4.4.6 / 4.5.3, experimental GCC 4.6.0 support, target-GCC fixes,
uClibc fixes and 0.9.32-rc3 support.
And the usual package version updates and bug fixes. See the CHANGES
file for details:

Enjoy!
