1.9.3 is no longer maintained. Please upgrade to 1.13.4 which is the
latest supported release.

As already said, usually only root is allowed to write in /usr/local.
Did you check that your user is able to wite there?

Note that you should *not* run as root. It's very dangerous.

That's a knwon problem, due to upstream renaming there releases. Update
to a more recent crosstool-NG to use the new names.

Looks like you are able to write into /usr/local, indeed.

And what is in this file?

As Martin suggested, please post the relevant part of the build.log file.
If you do not know what part is relevant, do *not* post the entire file;
instead, put it on some website where we can download it.
