Richard Purdie bb6ddc3691 Convert to new override syntax
This is the result of automated script conversion:

scripts/contrib/convert-overrides.py <oe-core directory>

converting the metadata to use ":" as the override character instead of "_".

# Notes on the way the OE cross toolchain now works
#
# We need a libgcc to build glibc. Tranditionally we therefore built
# a non-threaded and non-shared compiler (gcc-cross-initial), then use
# that to build libgcc-initial which is used to build glibc which we can
# then build gcc-cross and libgcc against.
#
# We were able to drop the glibc dependency from gcc-cross, with two tweaks:
# a) specify the minimum glibc version to support in a configure option
# b) create a dummy limits.h file so that later when glibc creates one,
# the headers structure has support for it. We can do this with a simple
# empty file
#
# Once gcc-cross is libc independent, we can use it to build both
# libgcc-initial and then later libgcc.
#
# libgcc-initial is tricky as we need to imitate the non-threaded and
# non-shared case. We can do that by hacking the threading mode back to
# "single" even if gcc reports "posix" and disable libc presence for the
# libgcc-intial build. We have to create the dummy limits.h to avoid
# compiler errors from a missing header.
#
# glibc will fail to link with libgcc-initial due to a missing "exception
# handler" capable libgcc (libgcc_eh.a). Since we know glibc doesn't need
# any exception handler, we can safely symlink to libgcc.a.
