Thanks for trying... I'm a bit at loss how to fix this without being
able to reproduce it.  I can think of one other thing to try,
otherwise I hope that Han-Wen has an idea?

It almost looks like
a python-2.5.1 (or possibly ever a race-) problem.  What if you
add at the bottom of gub/specs/librestrict.py

  Librestrict_open__tools = Librestrict__tools

Yes, that's where we're going.  This bootstrap idea is from the old
days that gub could not handle cross-target dependencies.  Also
it's playing safe: first build GIT, then the other tools, then
the cross compilers, then the rest.
