1.16.0: can't create arm-bare_newlib_cortex_m3_nommu-eabi toolchain

[Trevor Woerner <twoerner at gmail dot com>]

Hi everyone,

I used the 1.16.0 release of crosstool-NG to attempt to create the
arm-bare_newlib_cortex_m3_nommu-eabi toolchain but was not successful.

$ ct-ng arm-bare_newlib_cortex_m3_nommu-eabi
$ ct-ng menuconfig
(small tweaks to the configuration to add make-3.81-native and adjust
a couple paths)
$ ct-ng build

I followed the same steps with 1.15.0 and it succeeded without problems.

I can't help notice that with 1.15.0 the order of build is:
[INFO ]  Extracting, patching and installing companion tools
[INFO ]  Installing GMP for host
[INFO ]  Installing MPFR for host
[INFO ]  Installing PPL for host
[INFO ]  Installing CLooG/PPL for host
[INFO ]  Installing binutils for host
[INFO ]  Installing elf2flt for host
[INFO ]  Installing pass-2 core C compiler
[INFO ]  Installing C library
[INFO ]  Installing final compiler
[INFO ]  Finishing C library

but for 1.16.0 the order is:
[INFO ]  Extracting, patching and installing companion tools
[INFO ]  Installing MPFR for host
[INFO ]  Installing PPL for host
[INFO ]  Installing CLooG/PPL for host
[INFO ]  Installing binutils for host
[INFO ]  Installing elf2flt for host
[INFO ]  Installing pass-1 core C compiler
[INFO ]  Installing pass-2 core C compiler
[INFO ]  Installing final compiler
(failure)

Notice how with 1.15.0, after finishing up pass-2 of the
cross-compiler, it does the C library, then the final compiler. With
1.16.0 it tries to do the final compiler immediately after pass-2.

The start of the errors from my 1.16.0 build look like the following
line and are followed by many such similar lines:

etc...

I have attached my .config for the failing build.
