Thank you for the check-in.

The eCosCentric arm-eabi pre-built toolchains do not include StrongARM
multi-libs. AFAIK, users who want to build eCos for these targets will
therefore need to either build their own arm-eabi-gcc or revert to
CYGBLD_GLOBAL_COMMAND_PREFIX == "arm-elf" and use the older arm-elf-gcc
3.2.1. Can you please let me know what the intention is here so I can
mention this in the eCos 3.0 release notes?
