A buildroot tree containing a gcc-4.2.4 patch can be found here:

git://github.com/img-meta/metag-buildroot.git metag-core

Use meta2_defconfig

There's a known issue with all/random config builds with this toolchain
which results in internal compiler errors triggered by the inline asm in
arch/metag/include/asm/io.h when used by certain drivers, so I need to
update the patch to the latest before these will go away.

The other main issue with all/random config builds for Meta is a few
missing !METAG dependencies on legacy PC peripherals like SERIO_I8042,
which I believe you've already come across for Arc.

Please read this thread before attempting to fix them:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/201211161520.03974.arnd@xxxxxxxx

I haven't got around to fixing this properly myself, but it would be a
worthwhile improvement if you felt inclined to do so.

Cheers
James
