By default, PPL wants to build interfaces for any of a variety of
langauges it finds on the local host (python, java, possibly perl, also
more esoteric languages such as ocaml and prolog).
These extra interfaces can double the compile time for the library. For
single-process builds, I found a savings of more than 40%:
default / j1: 716s total, 143.2s avg, 0.52s stdev
just_c / j1: 406s total, 81.2s avg, 0.33s stdev
just_c_cpp / j1: 413s total, 82.6s avg, 0.22s stdev
And for multi-process builds, it approached 50%:
default / j4: 625s total, 125.0s avg, 0.57s stdev
just_c / j4: 338s total, 67.6s avg, 1.25s stdev
just_c_cpp / j4: 327s total, 65.4s avg, 0.36s stdev
Since the PPL we build within ct-ng is only used by GCC, we only need to
build the C and C++ interfaces.

PPL does not use the "--enable-cxx" configure switch at all; it's
possibly a cut-and-paste leftover from 'gmp.sh'. (PPL is written in C++
natively, so it doesn't make much sense to have to enable C++; GMP, on
the other hand, is written in C with an optional C++ wrapper.)

'configure' for PPL 0.11 (and later) needs "--with-gmp-prefix" to
provide the location of the GMP toolkit; the previous switches were
"--with-libgmp-prefix" and "--with-libgmpxx-prefix".
The upstream log message is:
commit 08dfb6fea094f8c5a533575a3ea2095edce99a6d

New configure option --with-gmp-prefix supersedes the (now removed)
options --with-libgmp-prefix and --with-libgmpxx-prefix.

Since PPL's 'configure' ignores unknown switches, we use all three so we
don't have to conditionalize the ppl.sh build script itself.

Managing the shared version of the companion libraries
has become cumbersome.
Also, it will one day be possible to use the companion
libraries from the host distribution, and then we will
be able to easily use either shared or static libs.
As a side note, while working on the canadian-rework
series, it has become quite more complex to properly
handle shared companion libraries, as they need to be
built both for the build and gost systems. That's not
easy to handle. At all.

The reunification of the glibc/eglibc code paths exposed a nasty
bug in the glibc build: use of PARALLELMFLAGS breaks the build.
See the explanations in that bug report against FC6:

Latest version of CLooG does not have properly generated autoconf files,

libelf is used by gcc to build the lto-plugin used
by binutils' gold to perform LTO.
This requires that files in libelf be compiled with
-fPIC to generate a proper .so.

It appears, that the configure scripts of libelf versions 0.8.13 and
0.8.12 do not honour the --host option. The compiler must be given as an
environment variable or the process will use the command "gcc" as the
compiler.
It seems that this is already done in the function do_libelf_target in
scripts/build/companion_libs/libelf.sh, but not in function do_libelf.
This rules out 0.15.5 and previous versions, that did not
have this option, so remove them from the list. Anyway,
they were marked 'OBSOLETE', so it's not a big loss...

I ran into some minor difficulties looking through the build log for a
particular file: I wasn't interested in seeing it unpacked, but only
when it is built or installed. Adding these two levels allows me to
differentiate between those cases.
[Yann E. MORIN: Those are blind log levels, and are used only to search
in the build-log afterward.]

As there's no longer any user of the companion libraries on the
target, nuke the build for the target.
Well, at least, there's libelf that's still needed by ltrace, so
we keep it.

In some exotic case the autoreconf step of mpfr is not executed (correctly)
leaving an incorrect version number for libtool in the configure script.
After extracting the sources files, force autoreconf to be executed.

The companion libraries on the target are required only for internal use by
binutils and gdb. The user should not have to know about this, so hide the
option.
For CLooG/PPL 0.15.3, the directory name was simply cloog-ppl.
For any later versions, the driectory name does have the version, such as
cloog-ppl-0.15.4.

The tmul test uses a compiled-in input file in $(srcdir).
The problem is that the Makefile passes it unquoted. The C code
tries to stringify it using clever macros, which may *usually* work.
In my case the source directory was named:
.../toolchain-powerpc-e500v2-linux-gnuspe-1.0-2.fc10/.../tests
And guess what? During testing I found out the program fails because
it tries to open:
.../toolchain-powerpc-e500v2-1-gnuspe-1.0-2.fc10/.../tests
Yes, CPP tokenized the macro before stringifying it and not surprisingly
the 'linux' part was converted to 1.
[on Fedora-10: cpp (GCC) 4.3.2 20081105 (Red Hat 4.3.2-7)]
So the attached patch simplify the macros and pass the path as string
from the Makefile.
Once we have canadian in place, Mingw32 can be a legitimate host,
so we have to recognise that along with Cygwin.
Also fix recognising Cygwin hosts.
