Unfortunately both the toolchain and the Linux kernel haven't commit
back to mainline yet.
You can only found it in autotools which is in FSF projects. :-(
The official explanation is that the company has put the code commit
activity in schedule.
But I and my colledgue are not sure when will it be started. :-(
We don't know if the CEO has signed the agreement with FSF already or not. :-(

Current toolchain we're using is gcc-4.5, binutils-2.19, the newer
version is still under developing.

It's pity that only you can found the toolchain with full source from
public is very old.
I can give you the url as follows.
http://osdk.andestech.com/

Currently, only the customers and universities could be able to get
the newest toolchain and BSP right now.

U-boot is the first project which Andestech to commit the source code
into mainline.
Hope this could encourage the company to commit the source code into
mainline more active.

Thanks.
