Yes, I spotted a left-over that still uses uname -o without failing back to
using uname -s. Will fix.

This will debug the ct-ng frontend. If you want to _actually_see_ what
is going on, you will have to have a look at the build.log file that is
present in the toolchain installation directory.

OK. Seems pretty obvious: crosstool-NG is mnot able to download mpfr-2.4.1.
Did you check that the MPFR site is up and reachable from your place?
The MPFR site is down from time to time, and there is nothing we can do
about it (except I did set up a small mirror on my site. look at the
help for the mirror options for the actual location).

That patch is already upstream. If you want to benefit from the patches
Titus sent earlier, and that I have already partly applied, you should
use a clone of the <Mercurial repository.
