Good! :-)
I saw that you sent some updates to the original thread. When you have
finished, could you summarise it, so we can see if it is appropriate to
include in crosstool-NG? TIA.

It is not currently possible "out-of-the-box". Restarting means restoring
a previously saved internal state, and continue as if there had been no
interruption.

Obviously, you can't restore a state that was not previously saved! :-)

Of course, you could fake it. That's not easy, but you should look at
  scripts/functions

and see what CT_DoLoadState() expects to restore, and what CT_DoSaveState()
does backup. Then, you could prepare such an backed up state manually.

Or better yet, change the binutils build procedure so you do not have to
stop/restart the build ! :-)
