 could not find the libstdc++). Not sure what's wrong here. Maybe I should
 use your newer binaries?

 Ah, okay. I did not realize that these were the fixes for the libstdc++
 issue...

 > .. so yeah, you will need new binaries. Mine were built with
 CT_DEBUGGABLE_TOOLCHAIN=y and are therefore too large to share. Anyway, we
 probably want to test determinism of crosstool-ng builds at this point so
 I think we should both build new compilers and compare results. Please
 post me your crosstool.config when you kick off a build (use the two
 options I recommended above and also CT_DEBUGGABLE_TOOLCHAIN=n).

 See: the crosstool.config_real. I start building it via gitian...
