Add support for building the HTML and PDF manuals for the major
components. Implement for binutils, GCC, GDB, and GLIBC.
Always build all manuals and install a subset. Be explicit about the
subset to reduce the clutter and to avoid getting copies of common
manuals like bfd from all of the sourceware based components. Downside of
being explicit is that you need to update it when a new component
comes along.
Build the manuals as part of the last GCC build, namely 'cc' for glibc
based ones and cc_core_pass_2 for baremetal.
An example of the output is at:

In the early days, cloog-ppl was bizarrely packaged: the first tarball
did not contain the version in the name of the extracted directory, so
we had to play tricks.
Nowadays, however, the first component of the path are stripped when
extracting a tarball, which means that the created directory will
always be properly named. So, our old tricks do no longer work, and
worse, they break the build.

Using an '@' in the version string breaks the gcc/glibc/gdb manuals.
Use a scheme similar to Debian, with a plus '+' instead of the '@',
as suggested by Michael Hope.

In the very beginnings, eons ago, autotools also got confused by this
whole build vs. host vs. target, and got it wrong. Now they fixed it,
but they want to keep backward compatibility, so the --target is still
recongised, although ./configure will complain if you do so. It is
better to use --host.

ncurses 5.9 wants tic to be either one of:
- $TIC_PATH
- /usr/bin/tic
Of course, se do not want the latter, for it can be incompatible if the
ncurses in the build system is too old (eg. RHEL 5.6, Debian Lenny...).
So, force TIC_PATH to the location of our own tic.
Also, install tic alongside the other build tools, not in a sub-dir
of the toolchain installation dir.

As we use the directory names as Makefile targets, they can not contain any
column ':', or else make will complain about 'multiple target patterns'.
Replace the offending ':' with a dash '-', as Titus suggested.

Some projects are using (or planning to use) crosstool-NG, and are storing
it in their VCS, which might not be Mercurial. At the same time, those
projects may want to track development snapshots versions the way we do
with the Hg identity string (hg id).
Provide a way for these project to do so, without having to patch
./configure, and maintain that patch over-and-over again.

ARM compilers can be built for soft float (software only, floats in
core registers), hard float (uses floating point instructions, floats
in FPU registers), or the half-way house softfp (uses floating point
instructions, floats in core registers).

Some architectures support a mixed hard/soft floating point, where
the compiler emits hardware floating point instructions, but passes
the operands in core (aka integer) registers.
For example, ARM supports this mode (to come in the next changeset).
Add support for softfp cross compilers to the GCC and GLIBC
configuration. Needed for Ubuntu and other distros that are softfp.

Update all the samples, so that there is not config-prompt when
recalling samples. This is no upgrade, it's just about having
new options set (y or n) in the samples.
Also, get rid of the armeb-test_nptl-linux-uclibcgnueabi, it's no
longer needed, there's a non-test sample with uClibc NPTL, now.

Change CT_ExtractGit so that it clones the repository, instead of just
symlinking it. After cloning, any given ref is checked out, or if no
ref is given, the HEAD of the repository is checked out.
This makes CT_Extract behave similar for git repositories as it does
for tarballs, so that it for example can be used for passing glibc-ports
as a git repository.

Currently, we check host feature in ./configure. This works only for
cross toolchains, but not for canadian toolchains. ./configure has
absolutely no way to know what the host for the toolchain will be;
only the build scripts know.
So, move the headers & libraries checks from ./configure to the build
scripts, early enough in the build, but not before we know the host
compiler and other tools.
