libc/eglibc: Add option that allows for getting svn over http://

Instead of getting eglibc over standard svn://svn.eglibc.org
Add an option that allows the user to get source from
http://www.eglibc.org/svn

This is useful if you are behind a firewall or proxy.
If you are behind a proxy, don't forget to configure
${HOME}/.subversion/servers

In the [global] section setup your proxy configuration.

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:
     2 http://www.nabble.com/PATCH:-Use-short-for-fnstsw-td14775171.html
     3 
     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
