I as well use a Code Sourcery toolchain. arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -v
states "gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2010q1-202)". It took me
quite a bit to find a link to the toolchain as these gpl toolchains
from Code Sourcery almost seem to be hidden. But here it is if you
want to give it a try:

I very appreciate that you take a look at the patches - I really hope
them to be merged.

thanks,

 Bastian
