I've been discussing with schifra upstream and hope to have a fix very soon, so I prefer to wait a bit and get it fixed instead. They already put versioned binaries up on http://schifra.com/buildroot/ but I would prefer them to not do anything special for buildroot (that they might forget to maintain in the future). -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
