 This is correct

 Overall, I agree it would be unusual to push a toolchain change on x86
 this late.  One significant benefit of the Linaro patchset would have
 been new Atom optimizations -- if Matthias hadn't already backported
 these to the Ubuntu toolchain   ;-)   So the x86 interest is limited
 this cycle; I'm fine to just get an armel Linaro toolchain this cycle.

 In any case, we will stand behind the uses of the Linaro toolchain you
 chose to make and we will support you for ARM and x86 bug fixes as a
 high priority task.
