+
+The Linaro GCC 4.9 2015.05-1-rc1 binary toolchain release-candidate is based on the Linaro GCC-4.9-2015.05 release source archive. The only changes between 2015.05 and 2015.05-1-rc1 were the following changes in how the binary toolchains were built. The compiler itself was not changed.
+
+* @x86_64@ hosted, @armv8l-linux-gnueabihf@ targetted cross toolchains are now available, but were not available in 2015.05. The cross-compiler targetting @armv8l-linux-gnueabihf@ is now correctly configured with @--with-arch=armv8-a --with-fpu=neon-fp-armv8 --with-float=hard --disable-multilib --enable-multiarch@.
+
+* Glibc's slibdir and libdir were once again modified to address "Linaro Bugzilla 1717":https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717 - *Linaro-4.9-2015.05 moved system libs from /libc/lib/ to /libc/usr/lib/ which breaks things*. The following are now the correct locations:
+** libdir=lib/ (linker-scripts and static archives)
+** slibdir=usr/lib/ (shared objects)
+** rtlddir=lib/ (dynamic linker)
