 These look like old tools. My understanding is un-versioned tools would
 not be be part of any 4.11 version and the last un-versioned tools by
 Gaisler was 4.10.

 > However, the tools use all a sparc-rtems- prefix without a version.

 We should not and really cannot support un-versioned tools in the project.
 I will discourage any efforts to make it supported.

 > I found it convenient to use this scheme for the RTEMS master as well.
 You can build the tools with an arbitrary string after the target-rtems,
 e.g. sparc-rtemsfoobarblug99.abc is also allowed.

 Did you try the --rtems-version option, ie --rtems-
 version=foobarblug99.abc ?

 I support any version label and encourage custom ones for a specific user
 build. It is just no versioning I wish to discourage.

 Note, the waf based rtems-config support has a bug with a hardcoded
 version.
