As far as OE itself is concerned, the Angstrom distro maintainers have
the discretion to set whatever toolchain policy they want in their own
configuration files; if their changes don't impact any other distros
(which, judging from the checkin message above, these presumably don't)
then there's no requirement for them to consult here in advance, nor
even to justify their actions in retrospect.  It's their own distro and
they can bash it around any way they like.

So, you should probably take this up with those guys on their own
angstrom-distro-devel mailing list rather than here.
