[Cerowrt-devel] openwrt build for ar71xx (wndr3800, archer, picostation, etc)

[Rich Brown]

Dave,

I see you're on OpenWrt head, but the CC build is staying with uclibc (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.embedded.openwrt.devel/32651)

It would be a tiny step backwards from your most recent build, but it would avoid all the uclibc->musl hassles...
