Have the glibc build use the cross-objdump, rather than the host one.
On some distros (eg. Fedora), the native objdump can not interpret objects not for the native system, and thus fail.
This commit adds a new patch against glibc-2.7 that introduces OBJDUMP_FOR_HOST, wich, if set, overides the detected objdump.

Note: bizarely enough, glibc already has code to detect the cross-objdump, but that does not work for an unknown reason... :-(

     6 STABS hash table size change, backported from the binutils CVS tree.  Here's
     7 the CVS log comment for the original change:
     8 
     9 revision 1.25
    10 date: 2005/12/29 10:29:23;  author: nickc;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -3
    11 (_bfd_link_section_stabs): Use bfd_hash_table_init rather than
    12 bfd_hash_table_init_n(...,251) so that the size of the hash table can be
    13 controlled by the user.
    14 
    15 Note that tunable hash table size changes were added after 2.15.  The effect
    16 of this change is to make bfd use its default hash table size for the stabs
    17 hash as well.
