PATCH 1/1 toolchain: disable internal for blackfin
The internal toolchain was a "best effort" approach - we strived to make it build properly and all but it's mostly untested.
Since it's got issues disable it until it's properly fixed and tested and leave the official ADI toolchain instead.

Maybe some follow-up patches are possible, in binutils/Config.in.host and gcc/Config.in.host in the selection of versions?
Thanks,

Do we want to completely remove traces about it?
Regards.

Well to be honest, seeing how little contributions the Blackfin people are doing to upstream projects, I am not really hoping a radical improvement in the upstream support for Blackfin in the coming months (years?). So I'd prefer to remove the traces of Blackfin support.
Another option of course, would be to introduce support for the ADI specific gcc and binutils versions at
http://sourceforge.net/p/adi-toolchain/blackfin/ci/master/tree/. But it's one Git repository with everything, so not easy to package.
Best regards,
Thomas
