You seem to be mixing two things. external toolchain is used when you
have binary toolchains that you want to use and not _compile_ a
toolchain you seem to be injecting source of gcc which tells me that
you want to build a different toolchain which is using gcc-4.4.1 sources

in such a case you should add normal recipes for 4.4.1 and then choose
this compiler in your preferences.
