Huge fixes to glibc build, so that we can build at least (and at last):
- use ports addon even when installing headers,
- use optimisation (-O) when installing headers, to avoid unnecessary warnings (thanks Robert P. J. DAY for pointing this out!),
- lowest kernel version to use is only X.Y.Z, not X.Y.Z.T,
- a bit of preparations for NPTL (RSN I hope),
- fix fixing the linker scripts (changing the backup file is kind of useless and stupid);

Shut uClibc finish step: there really is nothing to do;

Add a patch for glibc-2.3.6 weak aliases handling on some archs (ARM and ALPHA at least);

Did not catch the make errors: fixed the pattern matching in scripts/functions;

Introduce a new log level, ALL:
- send components' build messages there,
- DEBUG log level is destined only for crosstool-NG debug messages,
- migrate sub-actions to use appropriate log levels;

Update the armeb-unknown-linux-gnu sample:
- it builds!
- uses gcc-4.0.4 and glibc-2.3.6,
- updated to latest config options set.
     1 Patch to fix following test case failure:
     2 
     3 		=== libstdc++-v3 tests ===
     4 FAIL: thread/pthread1.cc (test for excess errors)
     5 Excess errors:
     6 /opt/cegl-2.0/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-ss-3_3-20030714-glibc-2.2.5/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lthread
     7 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
     8 
     9 Note that *any* program compiled with -pthread fails:
    10 
    11 /opt/cegl-2.0/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-ss-3_3-20030714-glibc-2.2.5/bin/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc hello.c  -pthread
    12 /opt/cegl-2.0/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-ss-3_3-20030714-glibc-2.2.5/lib/gcc-lib/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/3.3.1/../../../../sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lthread
    13 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    14 
    15 Compiling with -lpthread on the other hand works fine:
    16 /opt/cegl-2.0/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-ss-3_3-20030714-glibc-2.2.5/bin/sh4-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc hello.c  -lpthread
    17 
    18 So -pthread is broken in some trivial way; it should invoke -lpthread, not -lthread,
    19 at least when targeting Linux.

    21 http://www.sh-linux.org/rpm-2003/SRPMS/gcc-3.2.3-3.src.rpm contains a jumbo patch,
    22 gcc-20030210-sh-linux-1.patch, that includes a fix for this.  Here's the
    23 appropriate hunk (brings in a fix for the documented -mieee option).
    24 No idea if this fix is completely right, but it works for me...
