Description Dexuan Cui 2011-02-22 17:45:21 UTC 
Both binutils and gcc supply libiberty.a and this causes conflict in sysroot and does harm to sstate.

RP's comment:  "we shouldn't stage the one from gcc and always use the one from binutils instead (we just have to make a clear choice and this makes the most sense)."
