Again, I want to hear the name of the individual who dicided to execute 
pull the trigger of this nuclear bomb aiming at me.

His step was premature and inexcusable rude.

Right, because rtems4.11 is the HEAD ... if there are issues with your 
setup, post them upstream of the tool in question.

Pardon, but the last posting of yours, I replied to speaks a very
