ARM EABI tool chain breaks XDR library

Description

The standard ARM EABI configuration uses short enums by default. This means the enums have a varying integer type depending on its values. This breaks the xdr_enum() function. The so called ARM ELF configuration in GCC uses fixed int size enums. Linux seems to have faced similar problems and defines a ARM_ABI_AAPCS_LINUX ABI variant which leads to int-sized enums by default. We should use this also for RTEMS.

I will test this and provide a patch afterward (will take some time).

The solution is to fix the XDR library.

Version: unknown → 4.11

Set version based on title name, these seem obviously to only affect 4.11
