Also attached to the first post, a tarball with the htop/dropbear patches, and a glorified terminal history dump of the cross-compiling of all that stuff, for those enclined. (With a full toolchain built via crosstool-ng).

Like I said, it's a glorified shell history dump, so it's a bit messy, pretty specific to my setup, and, more to the point, it pretty much depends on running Gentoo/at least having a portage tree on hand, because I'm using gentoo patches.

It'll mostly be of interest to the curiouser of you, and those wishing to painlessly build a fairly up to date cross-compiling toolchain for the Kindle that'll handle both static & dynamic binaries. (Right now, gcc 4.4.3, binutils 2.20.1, glibc 2.9)
