[oe] meta-toolchain-qte failing on gcc-cross-sdk_4.5.bb for mini6410

[Trevor Hickey]

Hello,

I have been trying to bitbake meta-toolchain-qte for the mini6410 and have
been stuck on this linker problem.

Here is my build configuration.

Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION        = "1.10.2"
METADATA_BRANCH   = "master"
METADATA_REVISION = "8e7ed36"
TARGET_ARCH       = "arm"
TARGET_OS         = "linux-gnueabi"
MACHINE           = "mini6410"
DISTRO            = "angstrom"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "v2012.01"
TARGET_FPU        = "hard"

I followed the instructions on
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Getting_started to set up my OpenEmbedded
environment.

Here is the error:

The "VFP register arguments" and "failed to merge target" errors occur
repeatedly.

I've tried adding -mfpu=vfp -mfloat-abi=softfp to the configuration, as
well as --with-float=soft. I have tried everything else I can think of, but
to no avail. I am new to using OpenEmbedded and could really use some help
with this error.
