           Summary: musl buildroot-toolchain and BR2_MIPS_SOFT_FLOAT break
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2014.08

I use the following settings:

BR2_mipsel=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_MUSL=y
BR2_MIPS_SOFT_FLOAT=y

Even trying to run busybox fails as ld-musl-mipsel.so.1 does not exist.  Some
digging around I found that ld-musl-mipsel-sf.so.1 does, I am guessing 'sf'
stands for "soft float".

To workaround the problem, I slipped into my post-build.sh script the
following:
----
ln -f -s /lib/libc.so "$1/lib/ld-musl-mipsel.so.1"
----

That gets things working again.  Not should how this should actually be fixed,
otherwise I would submit a patch.

Let me know if you need anything from me to help get this fixed.
