2017.02-rc1, Released February 11th, 2017

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Infrastructure:

	  - numerous improvements to support reproducible builds

	  - new waf-package package infrastructure to support packages
	    that use the Waf build system. 6 packages converted to
	    this infrastructure.

	  - add option <pkg>_PREFER_INSTALLER to the perl package
	    infrastructure

	Architecture:

	  - add support for the OpenRISC CPU architecture

	  - merge description of the ARM and ARM64 options, and add
	    support for selecting a specific ARM64 core

	    split into several packages, one per external toolchain,
	    and a common infrastructure.

	  - important fix for musl to prevent a conflict between musl
	    and kernel headers (fixes the build of numerous packages
	    with musl)

	  - uClibc-ng bumped to 1.0.22, and therefore enable uClibc
	    for ARM64, mips32r6 and mips64r6

	  - add gdb 7.12.1, and switch to gdb 7.11 as the default

	  - Linaro toolchains updated to 2016.11, ARC toolchain
