This patch fixes libexpat detection for gdb-native and
gdb-cross static builds.
For gdb-native build configure should not touch system
/usr/{lib,include} directories while looking for libexpat.
To fix this we pass --without-libexpat-prefix flag
to configure script.
For gdb-cross build configure is allowed to investigate
system /usr/{lib,include} directories, but it does not
hurt to disable this behavior. In this case configure
falls back to -lexpat, which works as expected.

Previous fix for cross-gdb broke powerpc-unknown_nofpu-linux-gnu which
uses an old GDB (6.8a). That GDB's configure chokes on $CC values with
multiple consecutive spaces; see the comment in 300-gdb.sh.

GDB's configure mishandles the libexpat.{so,a} libraries when it is
given -static in CFLAGS AND --with-libexpat-prefix in configure's args:
it checks for <prefix>/lib/libexpat.so and finding that, attempts to
link it as `gcc -static .. conftest.c <prefix>/lib/libexpat.so`; this
obviously fails (.so cannot be statically linked), so configure assumes
libexpat is unusable. Thus, --with-libexpat-prefix is dangerous and
should be avoided; instead, configure should find the libraries via the
supplied CC/LD definitions.
This commit updates the build scripts to match the new usage of
CT_GetCustom from the previous change.

We check for apps:
* make
* sed
* grep
* awk
* libtool/libtoolize
* install
* patch
* and more
...during configure. Our scripts should be consistent about using the
variables that define where the found tool was found.
Of course, we do hard-link these tools in buildtools, but that should be
a backup for the components we are building. Our scripts should always
use the tools we find.

The Xtensa processor architecture is a configurable, extensible,
and synthesizable 32-bit RISC processor core. Processor and SOC vendors
can select from various processor options and even create customized
instructions in addition to a base ISA to tailor the processor for
a particular application.
Because of the configurability, the build process requires one additional
step for gcc, binutils, and gdb to update the default configuration.
These configurations are packed into an 'overlay' tar image, and are
simply untarred on top of the default configuration during the build.

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.

Cross-gdb depends on expat and python. If either is missing, cross-gdb will
build successfully, but lacking some features.
Especially, if expat is missing, cross-gdb will be unable to parse the target
description, which may lead to runtime malfunctions and the following GDB
warning:
"Can not parse XML target description; XML support was disabled at compile time"
Hence, expat should be considered mandatory.
On the other hand, the features missing without python are not critical, so
python should not be considered mandatory.
This patch does the following:
- At configure time, warn the user if either expat or python is missing.
- In menuconfig, disable the static build options regarding cross-gdb if no
static version of expat is available, and disable cross-gdb if expat is
missing.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Impacted:
libc/uClibc
debug/ltrace
tools/sstrip
scripts/populate
ncurses is built solely for the sake of building a native gdb.
The user should not rely on this library to build his/her userland,
but should rather build his/her own. So we remove it from the
sysroot after we successfully build the native gdb.
Downoading a non-existing file from sourceforge gives you a "200 OK"
and an index.html. As we try to retrieve a .tar.bz2 first, and duma
is bundled in a .tar.gz, we won't get appropriate content, so
just force the extension to avoid the problem.
Thanks to Ingmar Schraub <is@eseco.de> for pointing out the issue.
