[I've just replied to you to a privately sent message, fwiw]

random remarks:
avr32_binutils/toolchain_binutils_binutils.mk.patch
There is already a BR2_ATMEL_MIRROR in the toplevel Config.in, use that
instead.


avr32_binutils/toolchain_binutils_Config.in.patch
I won't comment on you using a deprecated version of binutils (current
release is 2.17).
Please put the !avr32 next to !nios, i.e. before the DEPRECATED.


avr32_kernel_headers/toolchain_kernel-headers_Config.in.patch
I won't comment on you using an old kernel.
Please put the !avr32 before the DEPRECATED


avr32_gcc/toolchain_gcc_Config.in.patch
Please put the !avr32 before the DEPRECATED


avr32_gcc/toolchain_gcc_4.0.2_gcc-4.0.2-atmel.0.99.2.patch.patch
4.0.2 is deprecated. The current stable release is 4.1.2, 4.0.4 was the
last release of 4.0 so far.
There are lots of changes due to RCS IDs in this patch, please drop those
parts.
