This patch modifies current toolchain build sequence so that
NPTL enabled toolchain can be built. The new sequence works
well with linuxthreads as well.
It introduces a new pass for gcc cross compilation. The new
sequence is binutils->gcc-initial->linux-headers -> uclibc-configured
(some cheats to generate phony shared libc.so and libm.o)
-> gcc-intermediate(with shared lib support) -> uclibc -> gcc-final
I also added a new sample config arm_nptl_toolchain_defconfig which
builds the toolchain and busybox.
I have only tried it on arm. However it should work for other
architectures which support NPTL on uclibc e.g. mips, sh, x86, ppc, x86_64
