[meta-freescale] Yocto dizzy version 1.7.1 cross compiling meta-toolchain BROKEN for weeks now!

[ad me]

Matt,

Thanks!
I overlooked the fact that the compiler is also part of the $CC variable.

Correct usage:

---------------------------------------------------

aseema at en4078926linux:~/myyocto/fsl-community-bsp/build/tmp/sysroots/wandboard-dual/home/xuser$
./a.out
bash: ./a.out: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
aseema at en4078926linux
:~/myyocto/fsl-community-bsp/build/tmp/sysroots/wandboard-dual/home/xuser$

-----------------------------------------------------
Obviously not an x86 executable :)

Thanks a million for pointer!
Ad.
