I too am a victim of the ti81xx EZSDK horror.  I've been compiling the
EZSDK on its own, doing a "make install EXEC_DIR=/some/place", and then
using a script to selectively pull stuff out of the created install tree
into something like a target skeleton overlay that gets installed into
staging as well.  It works, but stinks for source control.  (Check in the
whole 1.6G, most of which is worthless and takes a long time to compile, or
check in the resulting overlay, which feels hacky?)
