misc: do not use "tar cf - |tar xf -"
Using this: tar cf - -C "/some/place" |tar xf - -C "/some/other/place"
to copy a directory to another place does not properly fail (when it does).
Using this instead: cp -av "/some/place" "/some/other/place"
makes it easy to see why and how it failed.

cc/gcc: update ptachsets for gcc-4.4.{0,1,2}
As reported by Joachim Nilsson <jocke@vmlinux.org>
in: http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2010-01/msg00005.html
It seems I need to add the 4.3.4/290-index_macro.patch to the GCC 4.4.x
series as well. I immediately trigger the following libstdc++ bug for
4.4.2 with a uClibc .config which has UCLIBC_SUSV3_LEGACY_MACROS set[1].

scripts/functions: fix downloading with aria2
In case the remote file does not exist (and probably for some
other reasons as well), aria2 nonetheless creates an empty file
(or not empty for some other reasons).
The solution is to delete the file whenever aria2 fails.

debug/strace: fix strace 4.5.19 to properly build with latest Linux kernels
Here's a couple of patches to get strace 4.5.19 to configure and build
properly with the latest kernel headers. Not pretty, but hopefully
enough while we wait for 4.5.20 to be released.
With the current strace-4.5.19 patches I failed to get the configure
script running even on my host environment. Also, when cross building
the configure script needs to look for the proper system headers to be
able to properly set HAVE_LINUX_NETLINK_H. Otherwise you get:
[EXTRA] Building strace
[ERROR] /home/jocke/x-tools/targets/src/strace-4.5.19/net.c:976:
error: field 'nl' has incomplete type
[ERROR] make[2]: *** [net.o] Error 1
[ERROR] make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
The fix was simple, backport a change set from the git[1] tree and run
autoreconf to update the configure script.

debug/tools: set the ncurses extension to .tar.gz
TRying to download every extension in turn takes ages, so
help the helper by telling what extension to retrieve.
