icu does not recognize 'uclinux' as a supported platform. While making
it recognize uclinux is easy, there is another problem down the road:
icu does very weird things to generate an ELF library containing
static data (libicudata.a), and the generated library being ELF, it is
not compatible with the FLAT binary format expected by uclinux
platforms such as Blackfin in FLAT format.
Therefore, we simply disallow the selection of icu on FLAT
platforms.
Note that adding a dependency on BR2_BINFMT_ELF doesn't work, because
BR2_BINFMT_FDPIC is considered to be separate (even if technically
FDPIC is a derivative of ELF). That's why the dependency we're adding
is "depends on !BR2_BINFMT_FLAT" and not "depends on BR2_BINFMT_ELF".

Some compilers, such as the Blackfin GNU compiler, prefix a character to any
C symbol in generated assembly code. If any assembly symbol is invoked
from C code, it needs to be prefixed as well.
Note: since autoreconf doesn't work with this package because automake
isn't used.

The host build of icu doesn't need to build everything, so we can add
a few more --disable-<foo> options to save a little bit of build time.
On a fast build server, this bring the host icu build from 2m28.517s
to 2m5.192s.

When passed --enable-static and --enable-shared, icu will generate
both a shared and a static version of its libraries.
However, in order to do so, it builds each and every object file
twice: once with -fPIC (for the shared library), and once without
-fPIC (for the static library). While admittedly building -fPIC for a
static library generates a slightly suboptimal code, this is what all
the autotools-based project are doing. They build each object file
once, and they use it for both the static and shared libraries.
icu builds the object files for the shared library as .o files, and
the object files for static library as .ao files. By simply changing
the suffix of object files used for static libraries to ".o", we tell
icu to use the ones built for the shared library (i.e, with -fPIC),
and avoid the double build of icu.
On a fast build server, this brings the target icu build from
3m41.302s down to 1m43.926s (approximate numbers: some other builds
are running on the system at the same time).

Many of ARM Sourcery CodeBench toolchain have a bug when compiling
icu's translit.cpp source file. The bug is trigerred when there is a
combination of "-W -Wall" and "-Os", and causes an internal compiler
error. The bug has been reported to Mentor Graphics.
Even though it is clearly a toolchain bug, having a workaround for it
is trivial in this case. So it will avoid our users falling into this
internal compiler error, and allow our autobuilders to test more
packages using this Sourcery CodeBench toolchain.

Use the <pkg>_CONFIG_SCRIPTS mechanism in all packages for which it
does all what the package was doing. A few packages, like libxslt, are
for now left out, since they need some additional fixup (for example a

Fix two issues with the icu build:
- icu source contains an #elif without any arguments, which g++ >= 4.4
flags as an error. This is both an issue for target and host build,
so restructure the .mk so any *both*patch is applied to both builds
(the other patches would cause trouble with host builds)
- icu build system isn't parallel make safe, use MAKE1

We have been passing -q to ./configure when using 'make -s' for
packages using Makefile.autotools.in for some time. Do the same
for packages using autotools, but not using the
Makefile.autotools.in infrastructure, taking care to not do it
for packages with hand written configure scripts.
