Cool, glad to know the recent changes made by Waldemar improved things. > The old 'Xilinx' toolchain also works fine, as expected. Yeah, for basic things.

Seems like musl only supports 'microblaze', which is the BE variant of Microblaze. I'll send a patch to adjust the Buildroot dependencies to not offer the MUSL external toolchain on microblazeel.
