The cross-compiler version of gcc now fails to build because the rules in
the packaging phase are looking for files with "<arch>-linux-gnu" in
their names, but they are created with just "<arch>-linux".
The following patch, when applied after doing "tpkg-make", overrides the
DEB_TARGET_GNU_TYPE and makes it work. It could be incorporated into the
template-gcc.tgz skeleton, too. I'm not sure whether this approach is
really the right way, but for now it gives me working cross-compilers.
It looks like there is logic further down in rules.defs that's trying
to take care of this (setting TP, TS, etc.), but the problem seems to
be that the *_files variables in rules.d/*-cross.mk reference
$(DEB_TARGET_GNU_TYPE) directly, so the dh_movefiles commands fail.
