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.

'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.

Since the gcc configuration changes, the way to select the

script was not updated to match, and a new gcc version was
added with this script.
Fix the gcc version; the script will be updated in a subsequent

We can't run the newly built gcc when it is a canadian cross.
Thus, we can't get the version number, and thus we can't get

The components have their version selection handled either in the .in
file or the .in.2 file. Handle both cases.
Also, when dumping an existing version, keep the user's grep options
(ie. do override neither options nor colors).

gcc installs the C++ headers in ${PREFIX}/include/ but we trash
that directory at the end of the build.
We previously removed that directory as it contained the companion
libraries header files. But it's been some time now that we isntall
the companion libraries in their own dedicated place, so we do not
need to remove that directory.
Until we have a better fix, just keep that directory for now.

As time passes, a known issues can be no longer applicable (because
the component has been fixed, or a workaround ahs been added in the
crosstool-NG scripts/config...).
Some may also be unconfirmed, with no way to easily trigger the error,
or applies to old versions of components...

In case date(1) does not support nanosecond resolution, it does
not interpret '%N', and leave it as-is. So we have to remove it.
Note that some versions replaces '%N' with 'N', so we have to
take this into account as well.

Using CT-NG with progress bar disabled, still prints CR ('\r') characters
on the output. When you capture the output to a file as part of an
automated build, it shows extra empty lines.
For example:

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.
