2012.08-rc1, Released August 1st, 2012

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Integration of a legal information reporting infrastructure,
	which allows to generate detailed informations about the
	licenses and source code of all components of a system
	generated by Buildroot. License information will progressively
	be added on packages.

	Default configuration files added for Calao-systems USB-A9263
	and Calao-systems USB-A9G20-LPW.

	External toolchains update: allow download of a custom
	toolchain, add Linaro 2012.05 and 2012.06 for ARM, add
	Blackfin toolchain 2012R1-BETA1, add Sourcery CodeBench MIPS
	2011.09.

	Allow the restriction of downloads to the primary site only.
        This is useful for project developers who want to ensure that
        the project can be built even if the upstream tarball
        locations disappear.

	Add a 'System configuration' choice to select between 3
	different init systems: Busybox init, SysV init and Systemd
	init.

	Cleanups to the package infrastructure. The visible change to
	developers is that $(eval $(call AUTOTARGETS)) is now $(eval
	$(autotools-package)), and similarly for other package
	infrastructures and host packages. Refer to the documentation
	for details.

	By default, automatic detection of the number of compilation
	jobs to use, depending on the number of CPUs available.

	Improvements to generate systems with static libraries only
	(infrastructure and package fixes).

	Add proper support in the Linux kernel package to generate
	Device Tree Blobs or combined Device Tree / Kernel
	images. This will be useful on Microblaze, PowerPC and ARM,
	which are architectures making extensive use of the Device
	Tree.

	Updated/fixed packages: audiofile, autoconf, automake, axel,
	barebox, bash, beecrypt, berkeleydb, bind, bison, bluez_utils,
	bonnie, boost, busybox, bsdiff, bwm-ng, bzip2, cifs-utils,
