[Buildroot] mpfr error on cygwin for arm

[Tom <fivemiletom@gmail.com>]

Hi Bernhard, All

Enclosed is cygwin-1.patch for buildroot-20050524.tar.bz2.

- requires cygwin 1.5.24 with development package

- configure buildroot for arm, arm-generic, eabi, "pc-cygwin", 
uclibc-0.9.29, buildroot toolchain with gcc 4.1.2

- FIRST do one build attempt (will fail, just to get and extract uclibc)

- apply cygwin-1.patch with p1 (it is at very bottom of this email)

- THEN do another build attempt, which will build
   gmp, mpfr, newlib and arm-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc-4.1.2.exe
   before failing (*).

Thanks
Tom

PS: if someone could take care of the apple part, that would be great. 
Also, the one fix belongs to uclibc and not to buildroot...


(*) it fails when cross compiling uclibc, maybe my UCLIBC options? Hints 
appreciated, need this to test on target.
