[OE-core] using an external (arm) toolchain - just checking i did this properly

[Robert P. J. Day]

  here's a summary of the eglibc config error i'm having trying to
bake a core-image-minimal for qemuarm on a fully-updated 64-bit ubuntu
12.04 system using code sourcery's arm toolchain..

  here's what i've added to the top of my local.conf:

TCMODE = "external-sourcery"
EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN = "/home/rpjday/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite"
NO32LIBS = "0"

when i run "bitbake core-image-minimal", the configure of eglibc
fails, and i've attached the config.log file, of which this would
appear to be the salient bit:

... snip ...

/home/rpjday/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.3.3/include-fixed/syslimits.h:7,

                 from conftest.c:10:

| #ifdef __STDC__
| # include <limits.h>
| #else
| # include <assert.h>
| #endif
|                    Syntax error

  that same error, unsurprisingly, occurs more than once.  i'm using a
fully up-to-date (git pulled) oe-core and bitbake.  i'm going to
wander off and find some coffee before digging into this, so i'm open
to advice.
