crosstool-0.28-rc21: more gcc-3.4.0, binutils-2.15, linux-2.6.6 support

[Bastiaan Bakker]

Thank you Dan! It compiles mipsel on Fedora 2 i386 perfectly and I even
got 'hello world' linked against a precompiled uclibc. Haven't figured
out yet what went wrong with the earlier builds. 

Cheers,

Bastiaan
