This the the external toolchain prefix. For example:

Could you explain a little bit the rationale behind this ?

I definitely really don't like this. Could you elaborate a bit on what
you would like to do ?
Thanks!

Mike, could you give an example of an ext-tool.mk you are using, for me
to better understand what feature you want ?
Thanks!

Some vendors (like ADI and the Blackfin processor) maintain & ship binary
toolchains that are up-to-date and have been fully tested. They also use
a standard toolchain prefix. Since these are (by and large) the packages
that users leverage when compiling Blackfin code, it doesn't make sense
to force them to manually input the toolchain name themselves. So let ADI
configurations set up reasonable defaults to make people's lives easier.
