Yes, I have used this toolchain to compile my own applications. They
are rather simple, only using a few header files. They communicate
trough the serial port (/dev/ttyS0) and processes some data. All this
compiles and works fine. Also tried to compile some other small
programs, both C and C++ (adding the -lstdc++ parameter of course).
Compiles and runs. These programs is compiled with make, and do not
have any configure scripts.

What I need is only the libcurl.a library so I can use it with my c
and c++ programs. Can I in some way compile this manually, without
running configure?

Thanks!
