commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=5f70a007c8e5a6c1ae6a01739a53c87c0fafbe44
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

The usual way to enable a package using the package infrastructure is to
use a config option so instead to add the toolchain package to the
TARGETS variable in the Makefile add a config option like all the other
toolchain packages.

[Thomas: remove comment that no longer made sense in the main
Makefile, and add a comment above the new hidden Config.in option to
explain what it is useful for.]
