Doko, thank you for the feedback. Given that we are midway through the
release cycle, and that we have not done *any* system testing with the
amd64 and i386 packages/kernels built using this toolchain, I'm
concerned with making this change now.  As acting release manager, I
propose we move to Linaro's GCC now for the armel flavor of Ubuntu
10.10, and make the change for amd64 and i386 in 11.04.

-Robbie
