As Thomas said on IRC, I would suggest to revert this. Is there anything
in BR that depends on the sysroot being named 'sysroot' or 'sys-root' at all,
or was that just an eye-candy change? (genuine question)

I will push the change in crosstool-NG that makes this configurable, and
the default is now 'sysroot', instead of the old hard-coded 'sys-root'.

Then, it will be a matter of taste what to set it to, with BR forcing it
to whatever suits (I believe just 'sysroot').

Also, note that not all toolchains set this to any of 'sysroot' or 'sys-root'.
For example, the CodeSourcery toolchains set this to 'libc' for the main
sysroot, and to libc/${variant} for each supported variant's sysroot.

Yann E. MORIN.
