They look funny to me. A line like
ln -s ../../bin/xtensa-elf-as as
with that in your path would mess up the ability of your hostcc to compile things.

I sent examples over to Tensilica. Maybe I will get a reply. They have been pretty friendly so far.

Tensilica's response is that our compilers are built wrong, there is more to it that the simple cross-ng instructions. They are going to give us better instructions, but the quick answer is to follow the instruction for building the compiler via buildroot. The Tensilica scripts should read the overlay file and set everything up correctly when the compiler is built via buildroot.

Did you run this script on the overlay file?

I forgot about that bit, I am building now to see if it fixes things.
