The depends-on-vs-select part of the manual really deserves its own
section title (especially because it is referred to and the xref gets
a 'sinpara' in PDF if the section doesn't have a title). So restructure
the surrounding sections to reduce the section nesting depth.

The tutorial for autotools-package and cmake-package currently gives
the bad example of setting _INSTALL_TARGET to YES, which is the default.
So change this into an example with _INSTALL_TARGET = NO, and explain in
which case this is relevant.

Newer kernels had a slight change in the random number API so the OCF
patchset requires a slight tweak to build and run properly.
Affected kernels are, per series:
>=3.0.41, >=3.2.29, >=3.4.9, >=3.5.2 and any newer version.
The fix is applied by detecting the API change rather than guessing the
kernel version.

As Thomas Petazzoni has pointed out, the compile command lines incorrectly
contain host header and library search paths, such as the following.
-I/home/peko/scratch/host/usr/include/freetype2
-L/home/peko/scratch/host/usr/lib -lfreetype
This patch changes the lcdproc package to pass the freetype installation
prefixes on the configure command line.

A /dev/console node must be present in rootfs when the Linux kernel
boots otherwise the kernel will print the following warning:
"Warning: unable to open an initial console"
This is because when we use an initramfs the /dev directory is not
populated at this point. This can cause problems when a program
(e.g ldso with early debugging enabled) opens a standard file
descriptor for read/write before these descriptors are actually
created by the init process later on.

Busybox does partial linking of its modules before linking everything
together into the binary. Those partial links are done without the
standard libraries, but that also means -ltirpc can't be found. In
addition, this probably fails horribly with static linking (untested).
The problem is that the LDFLAGS are also used in the partial links.
So instead, use CFLAGS_busybox, which is only used for the busybox
link step. Also make sure that this is passed through the environment,
not on the command line, so the busybox Makefile can still append to
it.

In order to solve
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/34f6843137efda20626af72714c110280ec577d7/build-end.log,
this patch makes the D-Bus package as well as all the packages that
select the D-Bus package 'depends on BR2_USE_MMU'.
In addition, for the specific case of gvfs, the missing
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS dependency is added (threads are required by
D-Bus, so they are also required by gvfs which selects D-Bus).

uClibc pretends to implement <fenv.h> as it installs the header, but
in practice, it only implements the functions for i386. This makes gsl
unhappy as it detects fenv.h, but then cannot use the fenv functions.

Commit 3c90f75496 made Python use a
special ./configure command in order to avoid --enable-shared
--disable-static being passed, because it was causing issues when
building certain modules for a 64 bits system.
However, not having a shared libpython2.7 library for the host
prevents the libxml2 Python binding to get built.
So instead, we use the default configure command, but we add
--enable-static which is needed for Python to build correctly.
Note that we tested the build of Python on a 64 bits host as well as
the build of Python for a 64 bits target, and both went fine, with all
modules built properly.

(Possibly) fixes#5354
The lua shared library patch was creating the shared library with
-nostdlib -lgcc for some unknown reason, which most likely is
the reason for the link issue reported in #5354.
Fix it by dropping these arguments, so gcc gets to figure out itself
what dependencies are needed.

A very common mistake done by our users is that they use
output/target/ directory as their root filesystem. Even though this is
loudly documented in our Buildroot manual, people don't read
documentation, so it is not sufficient.
This patch adds a text file named
output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM which explains why
output/target isn't appropriate to use as the root filesystem. The
process is:
* At the beginning of the build, right after the skeleton has been
copied, support/misc/target-dir-warning.txt is copied to
output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM
* In the filesystem images creation code, this file is removed before
launching fakeroot, and restored right after that, so that this
file is not present in the generated root filesystem images.
Note that the file has not been added to the default skeleton for two
reasons:
* It would have annoying to have in our source tree a file named in
capital letters inside system/skeleton/
* The proposed way works even if the user uses a custom skeleton.
