In kernel >= 3.3, the ext2_fs.h can no longer be imported from
userspace. This has been fixed for internal toolchains by adding a
patch to kernel headers, but this doesn't work with toolchains
generated by Crosstool-NG, or potentially upcoming external
toolchains.
socat in fact has a test in its configure.in, but the configure was
generated too long ago, and the generated test relies on the
preprocessor result and not the compiler result (but warns that in the
future, the compiler result will be used instead of the preprocessor
result).
So, by running autoconf on this package, we fix the problem: it
properly checks whether ext2_fs is usable or not, and acts
accordingly. Of course, it means that with recent versions of the
kernel, ext2-specific features of socat are unavailable, and we'll
have to wait for the socat developers to adapt their code so that they
use the e2fsprogs headers.
We also bump the version, since a new minor version fixing a security
problem has been released.

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

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.

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

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.
