you still need prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/host unless you hack around it in
the build system (it is referenced in many places it seems)

and prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.6 was needed by the mako
kernel for me, it failed badly with teh linaro chain (i guess that
should easily be solvable with the gcc-cross from the archive or just by
using the binaries with your last kernel removal patch)
