            Bug ID: 195998
           Summary: arm release builds rely on having a host gcc
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: arm
          Assignee: freebsd-arm@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: emaste@freebsd.org

The ARM release builds require u-boot, and u-boot's build infrastructure (for
at least certain versions) is hardcoded to use a host gcc. This is currently
handled by explicitly building and installing in gnu/usr.bin/cc but this will
not be possible once gcc 4.2.1 is removed from the source tree.

I suspect u-boot is just building some basic host tools and it may be possible
to just make a symlink cc -> gcc in the chroot for the builds.
