In case it helps, here's a link to the source tarball that I used:
ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7400-linux/sources/tskernel-2.6.29-ts-src.tar.gz
And here's a link to the cross-toolchain that I used to compile it:
ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7200-linux/cross-toolchains/crosstool-linux26-3.4.4-2005q3-2.tar.gz
