autoconf >= 2.64 was broken when /bin/sh is symlinked to dash. This
has been fixed post-2.65 by the commit at
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/commit/?id=7f75858f577f11a844781764f30cd42cfe8a5669.
Compared to the original patch, the patch included in Buildroot
manually does the change to the ./configure script itself. Otherwise,
the compilation of host-autoconf would require host-autoconf itself.

Hardcode m4 config instead of letting configure detect it automatically.
This hopefully fixes the build issues some (Ubuntu) users seems to be
having lately (E.G. #679).

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.

This release of autoconf brings a number of bug fixes, including a change
to the autoreconf script to pass the correct include path parameter to
aclocal.

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

Have been having various issues with multiple jobs (-jX) and building
autoconf. Turns out that v2.63 has fixed this. So bounce version
to a working version.

they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.
