In short: crosstool-NG is the part refered to as "the scripts to control
compilation and installation of the exectuable", it being the toolchain in
compilation and installation of the executable", it being the toolchain in
our case; and as such you must make it available, in conformance to the
GPLv2, see above.

Also, if you have local patches that you apply to the different components
(either manualy, or by instructing crosstool-NG to do so), you will have to
make those patches available alongside with your toolchain, to comply with
the licenses of the components impacted by your patches.
