I am not aware of any problems when using the ELDK to build code  for
the  OMAP  processors. There may be benchmarks where other toolchains
give some percent betterperformance, but as far as U-Boot or Linux is
concerned that should not be a problem  (if  you  are  even  able  to
measure the difference).
