BE Cross compiler for ARM-XSCALE

[Philip mathew]

Hello Juergen,

  I dont know why it was failing before. I repeated the steps, downloaded 
ptxdist0.10.6 and OSELAS tried the build and build did not report any 
errors. I dont know why it failed before, I guess it could be due to network 
connection errors.

Thanks for your help.

Yes I build the driver as an external module against the built source tree

Best Regards
Philip
