5e26da4673 docs/manual: rephrase paragraph about unsupported external toolchains
The ELDK now relies on Yocto, so it no longer has the funky
non-standard way of doing multilib. Also, we didn't mention that Yocto
toolchains/SDK are not suitable for usage with Buildroot. Therefore,
this commit rewords this part of the documentation to explain that
Yocto/OpenEmbedded SDKs cannot be used as external toolchains in
Buildroot, and why.

ba4146c37c docs/manual: update informations about C library in internal backend
Now that we have eglibc and glibc support in the internal backend, and
no longer marked as experimental, a little bit of rewording is
needed. It is no longer necessary to indicate that uClibc was
historically supported as the only C library, and that the glibc
support is experimental. We also update the rest of the description to
be less uClibc specific.

There is no need to tell people that they should remove stamp files: they

a524731012 manual: add explanations on limitations about using O=...
Using a relative path for O=... has limitations, since it is interpreted
relative to the Buildroot tree, and thus may lead to unexpected results.

For example, running this:
    make -C buildroot O=my-O

will not create my-O in the current working directory, but as a
sub-directory of the Buildroot tree, here in buildroot/my-O

Explain this in the manual (as is similarly done for BR2_EXTERNAL).
Also add a note that $(O) will be created if missing.

Also change O=.. and -C .. to O=<...> and -C <...> to make it explicit
this is an ellipse, not a relative path.

1de64ec8c0 manual: switch BR2_EXTERNAL examples to use absolute paths
Although it is possible to use relative paths, there are a few pitfalls
when doing so.

To avoid confusion for a (newcoming) user, use absolute paths in the
manual (as is done in examples for $(O)), since it is guaranteed to be
working without corner cases.

It comes up every now and then on the list, so better be prepared to

Developpers Day in Pragues, 2011-10-28:
    http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-November/047229.html

We consider the opinions expressed in that report to be still valid
now, two years later.

BR2_PACKAGE_HAS_UDEV.

Packages depending on BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_CREATION_DYNAMIC_UDEV or
BR2_PACKAGE_UDEV have been converted to use the new symbol.

This is confusing, especially for long-checked-out repositories where

Use the current date and time instead.
