(note that i have to use g++ 4.5 as chromium doesn't yet build with 4.6, it's a WIP upstream in trunk)

I tried to build 12.0.742.91~r87961 on pandaboard. After 7h it failed with this:

http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=82534 show how to solve that - will prepare patch

It looks similar to bug 641126

chromium-browser-14.0.807.0~svn20110630r91077 also fails on armel. Linking took nearly 600 minutes:
