So why do we still ship these obsolete so called arm-elf target?  The RTEMS 
users had several months to investigate this issue.  The wiki page

http://www.rtems.com/wiki/index.php/ARM-EABI

is from 2011-06-29.  The first mail on the list about this topic

http://www.rtems.org/pipermail/rtems-users/2010-December/007730.html

is from 2010-12-03.

This arm-elf has no future.  This arm-elf and arm-eabi are no alternatives. 
The arm-elf is dead.  Users have to use arm-eabi if they want to use a recent 
tool chain.
