PATCH v4 1/1 toolchain: control vendor part in GNU_TARGET_NAME

This option allows to customize the "vendor" part of the toolchain tuple, where the toolchain tuple has the form <arch>-<vendor>-<os>-<libc>. Use this option in situations where gcc might make different decisions based on the vendor part of the tuple.

Noam, All,

This option allows to customize the "vendor" part of the toolchain tuple, where the toolchain tuple has the form <arch>-<vendor>-<os>-<libc>. Use this option in situations where gcc might make different decisions based on the vendor part of the tuple.

Overly-long line, please wrap at <80 chars.

(Or maybe your mailer is broken?)

Highly broken.
