Edit:

	vendors/config/armnommu/config.arch

Change CROSS_COMPILE (or whatever has compiler settings in it) to:

	CROSS_COMPILE := arm-uclinuxeabi-

While you are there add and compiler option you know that you need for
this toolchain, also add

	PATH := PATH=/home/xxxx/Linux/arm-2007q3/bin:$(PATH)
	export PATH

should be enough,  then build the tree as you usually would,

Cheers,
