Hi,

I've been merging patches but there are a few things I've noticed which
could use some attention. I've kept a quick list of these:

* Need to have eglibc-dev not
include /usr/include/eglibc-locale-internal-i586-poky-linux/*

* Need to use something like  gnomebase.bbclass for glib-networking

* Is the new gcc config, I'd prefer not to hardcode SYSTEMLIBS_DIR for 
  lib, lib32 and lib64 in GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER* but code them 
  separately and allow for future manoeuvring in the multilib code

* Consider having the locale generation done by a Makefile and use 
  PARALLE_MAKE to enable parallelism.

* Consider stripping binaries/libraries in the sysroot (less diskspace 
  usage, smaller sstate package and faster linking if there is less 
  file to read?)

* Take a long hard look at the way distrodata is using overrides as it 
  looks suboptimal

* Move things out of local.conf.sample to local.conf.extended

Cheers,

Richard
