libc/glibc: LinuxThreads are no longer supported in latest versions
In fact, it is only supported in a few legacy versions.
Keep LT available for all eglibc versions, although it might need
a similar safeguard...

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.

scripts: create the makeinfo wrapper before we set PATH
If we set PATH to the tools wrappers before we create the
makeinfo wrapper, then we may well wrap an existing wrapper
from a previous run.

internals: fix stripping host binaries
The gcc used by linaro has a version number specific to Linaro, but
identifies itself with its upstream version numbering scheme.
This breaks the strip in the finish step, because the actual gcc version
is not the same as the configured one (eg. 4.5.2 vs. linaro-4.5-2011.02-0).

docs: add a status for know issues
As time passes, a known issues can be no longer applicable (because
the component has been fixed, or a workaround ahs been added in the
crosstool-NG scripts/config...).
Some may also be unconfirmed, with no way to easily trigger the error,
or applies to old versions of components...
Add a status for every known issues.
