crosstool-ng: patches/glibc/2.3.6/200-use_short_for

Add basic support for the Blackfin architecture

For uClibc, the name of the Blackfin architecture is 'bfin'. Actually,
the naming of the architecture is quite messy: for toolchain tuples
and uClibc, it's bfin, but for the kernel, it's blackfin. We've
arbitraly choosen to name it "blackfin" in Crosstool-NG.

Add Blackfin-related uClibc patch to fix a build failure related to
fork() being used in unistd/daemon.c.

Yann E. MORIN:
Apply the patch to the kernel/linux build script to use 'linux'
in the noMMU tuples. See:
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2010-04/msg00010.html

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:

     2 http://www.nabble.com/PATCH:-Use-short-for-fnstsw-td14775171.html

     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.

     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
