In case we build the C++ compiler, we have to tell gcc where to put the C++
headers, or else it will try to # put it in prefix/tuple/include, which we
make a symlink to sysroot/usr/include during the build, and that we delete
(the symlink!) after the build, but gcc will not look in sysroot/usr/inlcude
for C++ headers by default.

Unconditionally create the lib32 -> lib/ and lib64 -> lib/ symlinks.
This is reportedly a fix to build a toolchain for a 32-bit target on
a 'pure' 64-bit host (eg. on Fedora FC12, host libs are in lib64/,
and there is no lib -> lib64 symlink, as we can see on other distors,
as Debian). As gcc only puts static host lib in lib64/ (along with
target files in subdirs), we can safely create the symlinks.
Also note that the symlinks are summarily removed at the end
of the build.

The toolchains are now built in .build/ rather than in targets/

We also clean up the old dir, as users may have old samples that
still refer to the old location.
Do not hide messages during distclean, and do not ignore errors.

Directly select-ing the required companion libraries means we can not
disable them. That's OK for now, as we systematically build them when
they are required.
But with distros coming up-to-speed, we will need to disable the build
later-on.

To decide whether we need to backup the companion libraries,
do not rely on the !shared case. In the future other cases
may require not to save the companion libraries (eg. if using
the ones provided by the host distro).

check-lxdialog.sh breaks on 64-bit distributions which are lacking

Force gcc to not link with some companion libraries when
there are not needed (because selected-out).
There is no option to tell gcc *not* to build the Graphite and/or
LTO stuff. They *will* be built if gcc finds the suitable companion
libraries. If we do not provide them, but the host has them, then
gcc *will* find them, and link with them.
Consider the following:
- host has suitable PPL and CLooG (eg. Debian Squeeze)
- user wants to build gcc>=4.4
- user de-selects GRAPHITE
- gcc will find the hosts PPL and CLooG, and will use them
- the user moves the toolchain to an older host that does
not have them (eg. Debian Lenny)
- the toolchain fails, when it was properly setup not to
So, explicitly tell gcc *not* to use unneeded companion libs.

While GMP and MPFR are required by gcc>=4.3 (to build the frontends),
and MPC is required by gcc>=4.5, the other libs are not. If they are
present then gcc will enable advanced features; if they are missing,
then gcc will (should) simply disable those features.

Both toolchains were tested to successfully:
- _build_ busybox, giving respectively an n32 and an n64 binary
although it has not been run-tested.
- build linux-2.6.36-rc3 for Loongson, giving an n64 vmlinux
(which is expected, due to the way the kernel is built),
and the kernel properly boots!
Credits are due to Julien MOUTHINO (julm on freenode#uClibc) for
testing that the kernel boots on his hardware! Cheers! ;-)

being !MIPS, but is based on the host system being !MIPS.
