Hi
I guess you're right, and actually I've already began such a work. 
However, I spent quite a lot of time resolving this *hard* to find 
problem so if possible I'd really like to ask you to consider this 
issue for next version. (Thus, sparing others from same trouble). Most 
likely it's simply a mater of of passing "-march=armv4" to the CFLAGS 
when building glibc. Or, if you don't like that, perhaps mention in the 
documentation/website that from scratchbox v1.0.6 and up, the 
precompiles are ARMv5 only. 

Thanks
