Build errors with L4

[Bob Stewart]

Let me more precise now that I'm on the machine I was trying to build on.

Following the directions on the L4 Runtime Environment page, I completed 
steps 1, 2 and 3. On step 4, configuring the build tree, I selected my 
target architecture and platform and left the Building options as they 
were. This make failed with the error "no suitable compiler found". This 
message appeared to come from the script .arm-linux-SCRIPT which looks in 
various places for an arm gcc compiler. No seeing  instructions on tools to 
be installed, I decided to create a directory of links to the tools from 
Genode which I had previously installed. That directory of links was added 
to PATH. So, for example, the link to arm-linux-gcc points to 
/usr/local/genode-gcc/bin/genode-arm-gcc. Step 4 now completed and the make 
in step ran until the error with the static library references occurred.

What is the corrected set of tools to be using for this?

Thank you
Bob Stewart
