scripts: always create lib32 and lib64 symlinks

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.

        sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few

    20
        shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it

        does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
