crosstool-NG 1.10.0 is out


Hello all!

I'm pleased to announce the release of crosstool-NG 1.10.0!

As usual, there has been quite a number of improvements, new features,
and bug fixes all around. The most notable changes are listed below:

- components updated to their latest versions, of which:
  - Linux kernel: longterm, stable and latest versions
  - binutils: 2.21
  - gcc: 4.5.2
  - glibc: 2.12.1 and 2.12.2
- binutils: add support for gold and plugins
- glibc, eglibc: the two build procedures have been reunificated
- gcc: add support for plugins and using gold, better LTO handling
- gdb: fix build for powerpc (psim)
- misc:
  - cross-ldd now handles RPATH, and scans /etc/ld.so.conf
  - it is now possible to build statically-linked toolchain, so it
    is easier to move around hosts
  - downloads should be more robust
  - documentation (slightly) updated

This marks the beginning of the 1.10 maintenance branch, and the end of
the previous maintenance branch. As always, comments and suggestions
are most welcome!
