I'm not sure what to do with the last patch: the older toolchain is
simply no longer available from git.xilinx.com, and github.com doesn't
allow to download such a big binary blob directly. The only solution
that I can see to keep the old toolchain is to keep the tarballs in
http://sources.buildroot.net (just like we happen to do for the new
Microblaze toolchain). Would you be ok with that?

That said, the old toolchain is not really great to promote to users
either, because it uses a _very_ old glibc that causes a number of
compilation issues with our packages.

Best regards,

Thomas
