To build uClibc correctly we need correct endianness selected in the
crosstool-NG. Xtensa cores may be little- or big-endian, but this
property is static. The toolchain knows the core endianness and doesn't
need options to select it.
Enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_BOTH_ENDIAN and select LE by default. Specify empty
CT_ARCH_ENDIAN_CFLAG so that -m{big,little}-endian don't get added to
the TARGET_CFLAGS, as it's not supported by gcc. Specify empty
CT_ARCH_ENDIAN_LDFLAG so that -EB/-EL don't get added to the
TARGET_LDFLAGS as they are ignored. Select big-endian in the example
xtensa-unknown-linux-uclibc configuration.
This fixes uClibc toolchain build for little-endian cores.

Now that libc backend installs the libraries into the directory reported
by gcc as 'multi-os-directory', sh4 libraries are installed into a '!m4'
subdirectory. This directory then confuses GNU ld, which assumes the
exclamation mark to be a word separator and attempts to link to
'/usr/lib' (a directory). However, if multilib is enabled, the default
libraries are installed into the [expected] '/usr/lib/./'. This looks
like an artifact of SuperH's unique way of specifying the multilibs to
be built in GCC (which may list exclusions, starting with '!').

The configure error mentioned in the commits that disable
--with-arch/--with-tune when --with-cpu is specified is specific to ARM
builds. For other architectures, it makes sense (hey, it even makes
sense for ARM - read 'info gcc'! - it is just a shortcoming of ARM
build, apparently).
Thus, add an arch setting ARCH_EXCLUSIVE_WITH_CPU (currently, set only
for ARM) that will trigger current behavior. Permit combinations of
--with-arch/cpu/tune for other arches.

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.

This change, as per #222, reduces the number of supported releases of
gcc to the latest branch releases.
I noticed while doing this work that gcc-4.5.4 was never added, so I
moved patches for gcc-4.5.3 to 4.5.4 and updated the
bfin-unknown-linux-uclibc example. Also, 120-siginfo.patch was fixed
upstream in the 4.5.4 release, so this patch is omitted.
I also bumped the avr sample to 4.9.3 from 4.9.2.
With the addition of gcc-5.x, the gcc release team now releases the
major.minor.0 versions, while updates to the branch are available in
svn/git. We'll address that when we get to issue #219. This change just
removes CC_GCC_5_1 and moves CC_GCC_5_2 to CC_GCC_5, and removes
CC_GCC_5_1_or_later and moves CC_GCC_5_2_or_later to CC_GCC_5_or_later.
This is the first of two part changes, as mentioned in #222.
This change is slated for release in 1.22.0. The next change will be
slated for 1.23.0, and will limit gcc versions to what is on
https://gcc.gnu.org under "Release Series and Status", which is
currently 4.9.3 and 5.2.0, although I will also support the previous
supported version. In this example that would be 4.8.5.
Last, but not least, this change also retires AVR32 support.

This commit adds support for the Atmel AVR 8-bit RISC architecture.
This is the first 8-bit architecture to be added to crosstool-ng so the
configuration options for 8-bit architectures are added here as well.
gcc has had support for AVR for quite a while, at least since the 4.3
series for the currently popular ATmega microcontroler series.
The AVR architecture only supports bare-metal toolchains.
gcc for the AVR 8-bit architecture, usually referred to as avr-gcc, is
commonly used in conjunction with the avr-libc library which provides
additional resources for the Atmel AVR 8-bit microcontrollers.
avr-gcc can also be found as a supported package in some recent Linux
distributions.
This commit also closes#66

====================
EGLIBC is no longer developed and such goals are now being addressed
directly in GLIBC.
====================
I'm not interested in maintaining build support for unsupported
software.
Older branches of crosstool-ng continue to have eglibc support.
If you find issues with older branches, I'm always open to pull
requests.
Removing eglibc also frees up glibc cleanup and build optimization.

Technically, I don't forbid powerpcle support either, but I'm not sure that
there is any library/compiler support for that at the moment (though the hw
technically makes it possible).
powerpc64le needs glibc 2.19 and gcc 4.9. I haven't looked into the support
tools, but at least gdb 7.5 is too old (7.7.1 definitely has support).
Also make powerpc64 non-experimental. It's practically old at this point.

Toolchains that use the hard-float ABI now are to be denoted by a tuple
ending in *eabihf, while the prevbious *eabi is now an indication that
the toolchain uses the softfloat ABI.
This is purely a cosmetic thing, for distros to differentiate their
hardfloat-ABI ports from their softfloat-ABI ports.
(note: softfloat ABI does not mean that it is using softfloats; it can
be using hardfloat instructions, but using the softfloat ABI).

The latest kconfig stuff is more stringent when it comes to validating

new kconfig stuff will be merged (in a following changeset).

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.

For uClibc, the name of the Blackfin architecture is 'bfin'. Actually,
the naming of the architecture is quite messy: for toolchain tuples
and uClibc, it's bfin, but for the kernel, it's blackfin. We've
arbitraly choosen to name it "blackfin" in Crosstool-NG.
Add Blackfin-related uClibc patch to fix a build failure related to
fork() being used in unistd/daemon.c.
