Cool!  Rummage, rummage...  Looks like the prefix is bfin, so the tuple would 
be bfin-unknown-linux...  Nope, binutils dies saying ld doesn't recognize it 
during the "make configure-host" stage.  (That's tuple works for every other 
platform I've tried, but apparently blackfin is "special".)

Fire up google...  That suggests bfin-elf, and "make configure-host" finished, 
and that one at least built...

Something to play with. :)
