config: mark now old versions as being OBSOLETE

These versions are kept for the upcoming release, but they
will be removed from the next release if they are not used.

config/binutils: add latest version 2.20

Also add patchset vampirised from Gentoo.

debug/strace: add latest version, unmarkprevious EXPERIMENTAL

Also propagate the patchset from 4.5.18 to 4.5.19.

debug/gdb: add latest version 7.0

cc/gcc: add latest 4.4.2 version as EXPERIMENTAL

kernel/linux: add latest versions

binutils: remove duplicate config entries for binutils & elf2flt

scripts: add sed expression to apply when renumbering patches

Some patchsets have superfluous members in their names (eg. the ones coming
from Gentoo), so it can come in handy to pass a sed RE to strip them out of
the final patch name.
Also add a 'fake' mode, where the command will only be printed and not
executed, so we can check beforehand if the rename will be OK.

scripts: fis addToolVersion wrt binutils

binutils' config file has moved; update the addToolVerion script accordingly.

kernel/linux: remove the version prompt

debug/gdb: remove old versions

config/binutils: remove obsolete experimental versions

config: rip-out versions marked as OBSOLETE

libc/uClibc: fix building on system with recent glibc

While trying to build a toolchain with ct-ng 1.5.0,
arm-unknown-linux-uclibcgnueabi target,
I get the following error:

[INFO ] Installing C library headers
[EXTRA] Copying sources to build dir
[EXTRA] Applying configuration
[EXTRA] Building headers
[EXTRA] Installing headers
[ERROR] extra/scripts/unifdef.c:209: error: conflicting types for 'getline'
[ERROR] make[2]: *** [extra/scripts/unifdef] Error 1
[ERROR] Build failed in step 'Installing C library headers'

The following patch solves the problem.
(It's a backport of this uClibc commit:
http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/commit/?id=49e81cada73616864b9b31df0aeb6961c30f5a6e
)

[--SNIP from another mail--]
AFAIK this is a problem since glibc 2.10.

1.5: update to 1.5.0+hg

Tagging release 1.5.1

1.5: update version to 1.5.1

arch/arm: add sample for nommu bare-metal Cortex-M3 with newlib

arch/arm: add THUMB interworking support

Add config option to build wtarget code with THUMB interworking.
This is used to build the C library as well as all other code
that runs on the target.

arch/arm: add THUMB mode config option

arch/arm: no need to check for the ABI option

The ABI option can not be set if EABI was selected,
so no need to check for it.

arch/arm: add support for noMMU

Some ARM cores do not have an MMU (eg. Cortex-Mx and Cortex-Rx series).
Thus, allow the user to configure out the MMU for ARM.

libc/newlib: allow using CVS snapshots

The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.

functions: allow using sub-dir of a module

Some projects' module (eg. newlib) are checked-out into a sudirectory
rather than into their own directory. Handle this case in the CT_GetCVS
function.

libc/newlib: allow using newlib with archs other than avr32

libc/newlib: fix namespace in config file

C library config options should be prefixed with 'LIBC_'.

libc/newlib: cleanup the build and finish steps

build step:
- ./configure
- remove glibc-specific options
- pass the target CFLAGS in the correct variable
- make:
- build in //

finish step:
- print proper message in finish step

libc/newlib: fix host/target confusion

newlib handles the build/host/target a bit differently as one would expect:
build : not used
host : the nachine that builds newlib
target : the machine on which newlib will run

debug/dmalloc: fix handling of threading model

config: add help for the MMU/noMMU entry

config/libc: move around hidden config options

This yields a cleaner .config file that is easier to read.

scripts/functions: Fix a variable name.

Merge.

scripts: replace calls to svn with calls to hg in script to renumber patches

docs: get rid of any reference to the now long-gone svn repository

docs: move the "contributing" section to overview.txt

docs: configure no longer accepts --with-contrib

It's been a while that configure does not recognise --with-contrib.
Applying contibutions is to be done manually, using patch.

configure: force using the C locale to check messages

When a required tool is specified with --with-foo, store the variable
in the list.

samples: fix the avr32-unknown-none sample

Bizarely enough, binutils-2.18 fails to build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/bash (although it has code to recognise bash and act accordingly).

Waht is really strange is that it does build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/sh, *although* /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash. WTF?!?!

configure: split has_or_abort in two: one to check, one to abort

Split the has_or_abort function in two:
- one that checks if the tool if found,
- one that calls the above check, and aborts if not found

The rational behind this is to be able to check for a tool
and if not found, fallback to using our bundled version,
should the need arise (and I get time).

Merge.

libc/glibc: don't use legacy snapshots

glibc snapshots have not been updated for about the
past 5 months. Consider them to be deprecated, now.

libc/glibc: remove dead code

The option to retrieve snapshots is already handled by
the generic 'specific date' and 'use latest' entries.
No need for a special case, as there's no code for it.

Merge.
