[Buildroot] {buildroot 0004384]: GCC 4.3.1 fails with cannot compute suffix of object files

[Maxim Grigoriev <maxim@tensilica.com>]

Is this the right mailing list to ask questions about BUILDROOT ?

Should I ask some official maintainers directly instead ?

If there is a communication policy described somewhere, please, refer me 
to it.

Thanks,
