After fixing the relative symlink issue up manually I rebuilt
everything using Linaro 4.6.1 gcc. Everything built except for
mtd-utils. The source for mtd-utils needs a line deleted in order to
build.

I can't test since I don't have my system in a running state. I'm
still messing around with porting uboot up to the current revision.
But this gets me around the kernel complaining that the C compiler has
known bugs that will make the kernel fail.

Any help with the u-boot port would be appreciated. The conversion to
u-boot SPL support is rather complicated.  I have already ported the
kernel support up to the current version. After I get u-boot working I
will start submitting this code to mainline.
