glibc installs some bash-scripts, but uses the path to the buildtool
bash as interpreter (on the shebang line). This is only a symlink to
the real bash, and thus is not available at runtime.
Fix that by assuming that bash on the target *will* be /bin/bash.
We can not rely on the user-provided version string (be it via the
choice, or manually entered), so fallback to reading version.h,
which is both reliable and always present.
It's now been a while that glibc switched to git from cvs.
Get rid of cvs to download glibc; this will make for a good
cleanup before we add git support! :-)
If the selected ARCH is dual-bitness (eg. supports 32- and 64-bit),
then we need to know the correct place where to fetch some headers.
Currently, this applies only to x86 variants: i386 and x86_64.
The option to retrieve snapshots is already handled by
the generic 'specific date' and 'use latest' entries.
No need for a special case, as there's no code for it.
During the conversion to using bash arrays, the glibc build script
was improperly converted, and contains an incorrect variable
assignment to the config_options array.
- recently, tarballs for glibc 2.8 and 2.9 have appeared on the GNU ftp site
- always use a dot in version strings (eg. 2.9, not 2_9)

The glibc.sh script doesn't handle the glibc versions with
an underscore very well (bash expected integer error). I
have attached a small patch for that. Instead of looking
for "not period" I changed the sense to look for numbers.
I initially tried to make it look for either a period or
an underscore, but that didn't work like I wanted (probably
because I did something wrong).
Original patch modified to be more robust.

- renaming the dircetory in CT_ExtratAndPatch is wrong:
- patches against the C library addons may be build against the short *or* long name... :-(
- symlink is more robust, even if less nice
- renaming the directory _after_ CT_ExtractAndPatch is too late:
- if patches are against the short name, and we renamed too the long name, patches don't apply
- so we'll never reach the point where we rename

CT_LIBC_FILE:
- that one was not easy, as it had sneaked into CT_ExtractAndPatch
- which in turn made CT_ExtractAndPatch have references to C library addons
- which in turn relieved the C library _extract functions from doing their own job
- which in turn imposed some nasty tricks in CT_ExtractAndPatch
- which in turn made life easier for the DUMA _get and _extract functions
- which unveiled some bizare behavior for pushd and popd:
- if using smthg ike: 'pushd foo |bar':
- the directory is *neither* changed
- *nor* is it pushed onto the stack
- which made popd fail
CT_MakeAbsolutePath:
- used only to make CT_LOCAL_TARBALLS_DIR canonical
- which is ((almost) useless:
- hopefully, the user entered a full path already
- if it's not the case, too bad...

They are nonetheless in sync and need not be regenerated.
Fix that by touching the files to have 'make' believe they are up-to-date (which they are).

It dates from dawn ages of the original crosstool code, and is not well explained. At that time, binutils might not understand the sysroot stuff, and it was necessary to remove absolute paths in that case.
