Doing a chmod on the whole source dir after every packages

The offending packages are far from legion, and they now
have their own chmod u+w to cleanup their own mess...

docs: add an in-depth explanations of the build steps
The build process is quite complex: gcc is built three times, there are
two C library steps, there are those companion libraries...
People often wonder what all these steps do, and why they are needed.
Recently, someone proposed a tutorial on the crossgcc mailing list:
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00059.html
This meant that there was a need for such a tutorial, and explanations
on how a toolchain is built. So i decide to extend my answers:
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00060.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00125.html
into proper documentation in crosstool-NG.
Thanks go to Francesco for suggesting this. He has a fine tutorial
for beginners there:

cc/gcc: do not build plugins for static toolchains
Plugins are shared objects, and when building a toolchain statically,
the gcc build system breaks havok (although there is no hard technical
reasons it should not be possible)...
And consequently, do not enable plugin supoprt in binutils.

libc/glibc: add fortify option
By default, recent versions of glibc and eglibc will build some
functions that take format strings (eg. printf, syslog...) with
run-time checks against some format string attacks. This is
called a fortified build.
Unfortunately, this fails somehow while building the instrumented
version of syslog, with some kind of circular dependency...
Disable fortified builds by default, and hide the enabling option
behind EXPERIMENTAL for daring users...

buildtools: move to working directory
There is absolutely *no* reason for the buildtools (wrappers to gcc, g++,
as, ld... for the local machine) to be in the toolchain directory. Moreover,
they are removed after the build completes.
Move them out of the toolchain directory, and into the build directory (but
yet the part specific to the current toolchain). This means we no longer
need to explicitly remove them either, BTW, but we need to save/restore them
for the restart feature.

to change in the future.
