crosstool-NG 1.12.0 is out


Hello all!

I'm pleased to announce the release of crosstool-NG 1.12.0!

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

- updated components:
  - linux (up to 3.0 :-) )
  - gcc (4.6.1, 4.5.3, 4.3.6, annd Linaro versions)
  - uClibc (0.9.32)
  - eglibc (2.14)
  - glibc (2.13 and 2.14)
  - newlib (1.19.0)
  - gdb (update Linaro versions)
  - companion libraries (mpfr, cloog...)
- infrastucture:
  - pass checks from ./configure to the kconfig infra
  - detect more depedencies, differentiate hard-deps from optional deps
  - kconfig updated from upstream
  - nconf frontend
  - support for multiple configure extra-args with spaces

This release has a few new features, and is mostly about fixes and useability
improvements, code consolidation, documentation and misc minor changes. You
can see it as an "I still need to give it some thoughts, but there are changes
in the hood; Big Changes" kind of release. More in a later mail... ;-)

The release can be found at the following URLs:
Changelog: http://crosstool-ng.org/download/crosstool-ng/crosstool-ng-1.12.0.changelog
Tarball:   http://crosstool-ng.org/download/crosstool-ng/crosstool-ng-1.12.0.tar.bz2
Patches:   http://crosstool-ng.org/download/crosstool-ng/01-fixes/1.12.0/

This marks the beginning of the 1.12 maintenance branch, and the end of
the previous maintenance branch. As always, comments and suggestions
are most welcome!
