Phase 2: transition from arm-linux-gnueabi* toolset to arm-none-eabi* toolset

https://community.freescale.com/thread/313490 sums it up well :

arm-none-eabi - This tool chain targets for ARM architecture, has no vendor, does not target an operating system and complies with the ARM EABI.
arm-none-linux-gnueabi - This toolchain targets the ARM architecture, has no vendor, creates binaries that run on the Linux operating system, and uses the GNU EABI. It is used to target ARM-based Linux systems.


The former favors my design as there is no operating system running on EGWU.
Also there were some issues with faults tied to instructions generated by the latter toolset.

Its funny that the moment I switched my Makefile environment variables over, I got errors on my thumb2 C library tclibC.S related to NOT using the IT block of conditional instructions. I have since read up and remedied that mistake.

As an aside:
