[uClinux-dev] How to install multiple versions of Snapgear toolchain?

Hi,

I have a situation that requires that I use an old (2003 era)  
toolchain for an old product, but also need to use one of the newer  
toolchains for a newer Snapgear 3.5 based product.   Is there any way  
to easily install 2 different versions of the Snapgear toolchain on a  
single computer?   Multiple installs will conflict with each other  
because they always have to be installed in /usr/local.  I've thought  
about installing the newer toolchain in an alternate location and  
using chroot to create the illusion that it's actually at /usr/local,  
but there would be complications with that too.   Has anyone else  
encountered this problem and come up with a solution that works (and  
hopefully isn't too messy)?

Thanks,
--Dave
