Hey, if you beat me to it, then all the better! :-)

I've incorporated some stuff from the auto* branch of avr-libc, but I want to 
figure out a way to 
automatically set the host to avr, and not rely on it being set on the 
command-line.

FWIW, I'm just trying to do the bare minimum to get avr-libc usable with the 
latest versions. 
*Then* tackle other stuff such as lib/device.

But really, now I'm just trying to fix the bugs on the list so we can get a 
1.2.1 release out. :-)
