Some time, someone updated the locale Makefile to use
newer pre-generated locales data, but did not upload
those.
So we just force using the existing, ageing archive,
dating back 20030818. Sigh...
It seems that using pre-generated locale data can be more problematic
than usefull in some circumstances.
Offer a config knob to enable/disable use of the pregen locale data.
Also, do not extract pregen locales data ourselves, it's broken.
I was unable to make the cross-ldd from uClibc to work, and
it is not possible to build it on non-POSIX system.
Besides, we have a generic script that is in the starting-blocks
to replace it, that will work for any C library, and also will
work on non-POSIX systems. Bonus!
When building a cross-compiler for a target which uses a file extension for
binaries the symbolic link to cc is not created correctly because the lookup
of the gcc binary is done in a incorrect path

uClibc >= 0.9.30 supports three verbosity levels, according to "make help":
V="" - Quiet build (default)
V=1 - Brief build (show defines, ld flags)
V=2 - Very verbose build
I think older versions of uClibc treat V=2 the same as V=1.
For current uClibc, only V=2 shows the full command lines.

GDB requires PDcurses instead of ncurses while running on Windows.
So, do not always compile ncurses in case GDB needs to build.
PDcurses is provided by an earlier build step and is not described in
this file.

Add several development libraries to the build of the mingw cross-compiler
to be used on target
Libraries:
PDCurses (port of the ncurses library)
GnuRX (the regex library)
DirectX
OpenGL

Add the option to build a cross-compiler for kernel type 'mingw'.
The resulting cross-compiler can be used to build applications on a Linux host
that can be run on a Windows target.
Compiler is build using the mingwrt and w32-api packages aviable from the
MinGW project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw).
The windows headers (w32-api package) are extracting with the kernel_headers
step The libraries and other headers from both packages are build and
installed in the various steps of libc

glibc installs some bash-scripts, but uses the path to the buildtool
bash as interpreter (on the shebang line). This is only a symlink to
the real bash, and thus is not available at runtime.
Fix that by assuming that bash on the target *will* be /bin/bash.
In C, the proper syntax for a bit-wise OR is a single '|', not two.
It worked so far because all was well:
- X_OK == 1
- R_OK||X_OK == 1
- the file we searched for had the x-bit set
-> access( file, R_OK||X_OK ) worked
- inicidentally, the file we searched for also had the r-bit set,
but we were not testing that in fact.
Accept a local tarball name as the source of the Linux kernel headers,
rather than forcing the user to use either an upstream tarball, or a
local pre-installed headers tree.
Adds patch for GDB v6.8, v7.0, v7.0.1 to fix canadian
cross building of GDB for powerpc.
See original patch information here:
http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9638
The patch is not required for GDB v7.1 (fixed).
Tested in canadian combination using mingw32 and powerpc toolchains.
Tested to not affect normal cross building of GDB for powerpc target.

Here, we implement a highly ugly hack. I'm not proud of that one...
To build the libstdc++ library, the compiler requires the C library. In
case we build for non-baremetal, this is normally handled by the final
step, later.
But in the case of bare-metal, we never go through the final step (because
it does not work, and it seems complex enough to make it work), so the
baremetal compilers are issued out of the core step.
A few facts:
- building the C library requires a proper core compiler
- core compiler is issued from one of the core passes
- the C library is required to build libstdc++
- newlib is only built for baremetal
- in bare metal, the final compiler is issued from one of the core passes
So we need to build the C library between core pass 1 and core pass 2.
The only place is eithe libc_headers() or libc_start_files(). The most
pertinent seems to be libc_start_files().
So we build newlib from libc_start_files(), and leave libc() empty.
