I don't know where Ross got the patches from but I've taken over and he
told me the patches in mut were ready. I didn't take this one however.

My concern is the use of "remove" which I really prefer not to use in
OE-Core. In core, its a sign that we have the overall structure wrong
as we should never need to do this.

I'd like to understand why gcc-runtime needs this special treatment and
whether there are other arm tunes which have the same issue? Should we
be tweaking the main tune files in some way instead?

Cheers,

Richard
