I keep seeing my name mentioned here, but unfortunately I'm receiving little 
feedback on my arm-gp2x-linux review tickets. Which is a bit of a shame as I 
spend a lot of time on getting gcc for linux+glibc to build and install inside 
a buildroot and getting this right, as is needed for proper rpm / mock 
building. Luckily I eventually found that Mandrake is already doing cross 
building of most of the distro, and their gcc comes with a patch to make 
--with-build-sysroot work for this.

So does the lack of feedback mean that my SPECS are good? Or do people just not 
have the time to look at / review them?
