Sam bobroff 41444d7f89 pkg-autotools: generic configure fix for powerpc64
Many (100+) packages supported by buildroot contain old configure
scripts (or build them from old versions of autotools) that are unable
to determine how to link shared libraries on powerpc64 and
powerpc64le. This causes that test to erroneously fail on toolchains
that are not "bi-endian" (which is the case for toolchains built by
buildroot), which causes configure to build static libraries instead
of dynamic ones. Although these builds succeed, they tend to cause
linker failures in binaries later linked against them.

Because affected configure files can be discovered automatically, this
patch introduces a hook (enabled only when building for powerpc64 and
powerpc64le) that uses a script to scan and fix each package.

README

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
