I want to repeat myself that I want to see sparse fixes come in.  That
said, I expect that for v2 you will have done MAKEALL -a $arch for every
arch there's an ELDK 5.2.x toolchain for, at least, and there's no new
problems popping up.  If you like I can pastebin my MAKEALL wrapper that
lets you tell it things like --arch arm --eldk-521 and it sets up the
environment for the toolchain.

I also needed to not apply patch 01/32 and so I can really only take 27
and 32 right now (I'll reply separately once I really do).
