I already used a Codesource glibc-based toolchain with Buildroot, and it worked nicely. The only needed modification were : * Modifications to get external toolchains to work (I have sent a patch recently for this) * Specifying the proper values for the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIB_C and BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS configuration variables. If you want to *generate* a glibc-toolchain with Buildroot, it is probably going to be a more tedious work. But if you happen to do that, please submit patches!
