150f500426 arch: allow adding a suffix to the arch-part of a tuple
For some architectures, it is legit to have an alternate value in the
'architecture' part of the tuple. For example:
    armv5te-*
    armv7a8-*

Besides, some packages expect the tuple to reflect the arch variant
(eg. openMPI) to detect the variant's capabilities (eg. atomic
primitives).

This patch adds an option for the user to specify a suffix to be added
to the arch-part of the tuple.

693cc01f41 arch/sparc: add absic support
Add support for building SPARC targeted toolchain.
With this patch I have built a working sparc V8 (32 toolchain).

Testing shows that not all gcc versions works well:
4.4.1            OK  (kernel builds and the final kernel can boot)
4.4.2            Not tested
4.4.3            Not tested
4.4.4            BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.4.5            BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.5.1            BAD (Build fails with a spill related ICE - http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35664)
4.5.2            OK  (kernel builds and boots)

I have successfully been using the 4.5.2 version for a few months.

This patch does not add support for the LEON variant.
That may come later.
