Unfortunately, the mb-gcc that is distributed with edk6.3 is unable to 
build uClinux systems successfully (well, they build succesfully, but 
there's something broken in the resulting kernel).  By the time this was 
discovered, it was too late to debug and get a fix for SP2.

So, I recommend that you use the most recent toolchain from my website 
(updated about 2 weeks ago), and yes, place it in the path before the 
edk6.3 Gnu tools.

I am working with the EDK team to make sure that this all works straight 
from the box, in the next EDK release.

Regards,

John
