on file extensions the symlink for cc was not installed correctly

ltrace uses ppc, whereas crosstool-NG use powerpc.
Fix that by passing the correct value to HOST when calling configure.

ltrace uses i386 and x86_64, whereas crosstool-NG use x86 for both cases.
Fix that by detecting what bitness we're building for, and pass appropriate
i386 or x86_64 to ltrace's configure.

We can not rely on the user-provided version string (be it via the
choice, or manually entered), so fallback to reading version.h,
which is both reliable and always present.
It's now been a while that glibc switched to git from cvs.
Get rid of cvs to download glibc; this will make for a good
cleanup before we add git support! :-)

We only build the static ncurses, to be used to build the native gdb,
and it needs not be available for anyone but us. So install it into
a temporary place, and get rid of it once gdb is built.

If the selected ARCH is dual-bitness (eg. supports 32- and 64-bit),
then we need to know the correct place where to fetch some headers.
Currently, this applies only to x86 variants: i386 and x86_64.
Trying to download every extension in turn does not work.
The Debian server returns a friendly 404-page that is
saved as the orig.tar.bz2 file. Help the helper by giving
it the extension to retrieve.
From this version of ltrace the maintainer has removed support for
GNU Autotools, so the patch sets needed to be reworked.
Included is the latest Debian patch, by the Debian ltrace maintainer
Juan Cespedes <cespedes@debian.org>, the OpenEmbedded patches for cross
compiling, by Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> and a further set of patches
by Joachim Nilsson <jocke@vmlinux.org> for crosstool-NG.
Using this: tar cf - -C "/some/place" |tar xf - -C "/some/other/place"
to copy a directory to another place does not properly fail (when it does).
Using this instead: cp -av "/some/place" "/some/other/place"
makes it easy to see why and how it failed.

Don't select unneeded config knobs. Don't select non-existing config knobs.
Use the "no patch" config knob, instead of pointing to an non-exiting local
patch dir. Simplify the tuple-related scripts. Update the samples.
Add config option to build wtarget code with THUMB interworking.
This is used to build the C library as well as all other code
that runs on the target.
The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.
