Hum, right. Mischa, could you fix those and submit a patch? I've added
a ARC configuration to the autobuilders, and it is now failing since
Peter didn't commit this patch.

The problem is that those old gcc versions require flex/bison to build
properly. The issue was not seen on the autobuilders, because so far the
only architectures that are using those old versions are AVR32 (4.2)
and SPARC/Leon (4.4).

For AVR32, the autobuilder uses a an external toolchain which was built
with a previous version of Buildroot, at a time where the autobuilder
chroot had bison and flex installed system-wide.

For SPARC, there is no autobuilder configuration (maybe I should add
one?).

So this bug already exists today, independently of the ARC support: I
think that if you try to build the AVR32 internal toolchain on a system
where bison and flex are not installed, the build is going to fail.

See
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/cc6c6f8036ee2a35c3eec36cf3f4338e76c19d68/build-end.log
for an autobuilder failure that exhibits the problem.

Best regards,

Thomas
