Initially, yes I did. I had the ARCH at "sh4". This was because OpenWRT
already had infrastructure for some sh-(sub)targets (sh3, sh3eb, sh4, sh4eb)
in place. But they seem to be unused and untested. The only target which has
support for SuperH is UserModeLinux. However, it will probably run into the
same issue.
Now, I've changed ARCH to "sh" and set the CPU_TYPE to sh4 [toolchain
dir changed to toolchain-sh_sh4_gcc-5.2.0_musl-1.1.10]. But still no
luck, the original error code remains the same.
src/thread/__set_thread_area.lo: In function `__set_thread_area':
__set_thread_area.c:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `__set_thread_area'
arch/sh/src/__set_thread_area.lo:__set_thread_area.c:(.text+0x0): first defined here

In case you want to know: Hardware is a 2013 Sat>IP set-top-box
(idl4k platform) with a STx7108 (that's sh4, little endian,
with mmu and with fpu).

The J4 arch is sadly 2 years ahead of time ;-) [EU4]. But I think
I'll definitely need some help to figure out - Another issue seems
to be that the arch string changed from sh*-linux to sh-*-linux
between gcc-4.8 and gcc-5.2... So, what to do?
