Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the
GENTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to
repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

Host libraries should always be built using dynamic linking, rather than
static if BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB is enabled, as that then breaks dependent
libraries expecting a shared library.

By default, zlib installation procedure calls ldconfig, which takes
time uselessly. ldconfig is only useful if you install libraries on
the host (in directories listed in /etc/ld.so.conf, or in /usr/lib or
/lib), so calling it after installing libraries in $(STAGING_DIR),
$(TARGET_DIR) or $(HOST_DIR) is just a lenghty no-op.

Use 'make install' for installation, add a patch to make it work for
static only builds, and add uninstall/clean targets while we're at it.

Using "make -j $(N)" with N > 1 sometimes breaks zlib build.

zlib is needed on the host, to build xlib_libfontenc on the host, to
build xapp_mkfontscale on the host, in order to finally build xfonts
encodings on the target.

Positive logic is easier to read and understand than something

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.

This patch will install zlib keeping the symlinks. The usage of
$(INSTALL) here did not take into account symbolic links.

The ARM uClinux BFLT format apparently doesn't support shared libs nor
-fPIC. So let's distinguish between shared and non shared builds by
having split rules for libz.a and libz.so based on BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB.

If I understand you correctly, you want the ncurses development headers
on the target.
a patch for this (named target_headers.patch and includes similar
options for a few other libs in buildroot) can be found at:
http://www.zelow.no/floppyfw/download/Development/Patches/buildroot/
(a few packages there aswell)
it will add an option to put headers on target for ncurses, zlib and
openssl.
