2014.02, Not yet released:

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Support for external packages/defconfigs (BR2_EXTERNAL). See
	user manual for details.

	Cleanup of environment variable names for consistency. The
	download directory location override (BUILDROOT_DL_DIR) is now
	called BR2_DL_DIR. Likewise the name of the current .config is
	renamed from BUILDROOT_CONFIG to BR2_CONFIG. Please update
	your post build scripts if you use this! BUILD_DIR is now also
	exported to the post build/image scripts.

	Toolchain: GCC 4.8 fix for ARM stack corruption, reverted
	uClibc pread/pwrite backport as they cause issues on certain
	architectures, new Linaro and Sourcery Codebench toolchains.
	x86: Support for AMD Jaguar cores, SSE4.x, SH: SH2/SH3/SH3EB
	variants removed, Microblaze: Internal toolchain support

	Legal infrastructure: Info is now split between host and
	target packages, large number of license annotations.

	Lua: selection between lua 5.1 / 5.2, luarocks support

	Python: package infrastructure, many new packages.

	Defconfigs: Armadeus APF51 + Zedboard added, apf27, apf28,
	microblaze, pandaboard, qemu, raspberry pi updated.
