Hi Yann,

I think that the plan looks good, and that it will be beneficial for Buildroot.

If it's not already on the list, I'd like you to add the debug-root as
a toolchain option available for buildroot. My reason is that I'd like
to update and get my patch [1] to install gdbserver from crosstool-NG
to the target system integrated into buildroot.

I think that it would be possible to create a "cleaner" patch, if such
an option where available to buildroot.

Thanks in advance.
