Public build host (proposal)

[Steven **]

Try an older version of the Toolchain:
http://downloads.openmoko.org/toolchains/

I've had good luck with the 20071211 build.  But couldn't get the same
app to compile with the latest build (20080521).  Hopefully we'll get
an updated and working Toolchain shortly (someone is working on it
from what I've read).
