Git rev: 1.4_M5/bdca49274173153b1b0a72887de6321b4756b684

For the arm toolchain sdk, I found the target arch changed from armv5te to armv7a-vfp-neno .

When I install the poky-eglibc-x86_64-arm-toolchain-gmae-1.3+snapshot-20130327.sh, the target arch is armv7a-vfp-neon:
#############
$ ls /opt/poky/1.3+snapshot/
environment-setup-armv7a-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
site-config-armv7a-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
sysroots
version-armv7a-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
#############

But for previous arm toolchain sdk, the target arch is armv5te:
#############
$ ls /opt/poky/1.3+snapshot/
environment-setup-armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi
site-config-armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi
sysroots
version-armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi
#############

This is caused by MACHINE setting. If the MACHINE is qemuarm, the target arch would be armv5te. If the MACHINE is beagleboard, the target arch would be beagleboard. 

I think we should changed the arch to armv5te, in order to be compatible with the adt_installer.
