By default (i.e. without adding libgomp.so* to
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_LIBS), if an external toolchain with libgomp
support is used, then libgomp is installed to staging/ , but not to target/ .
Consequently, with such a toolchain, imagemagick's configure detected libgomp as
supported and enabled its usage for the build stage, but then it failed to run
on the target because libgomp was missing. This is the bug #7322.
Disable OpenMP for imagemagick as a temporary workaround, until a better long
term solution is agreed on and implemented.

The ecryptfs-utils package requires the 'gettext' program, which is
provided by the gettext package, to get translated strings. This is
needed regardless of whether the toolchain uses glibc or uClibc.
This issue was reported by 'ausjke' on IRC.

Until now, we thought that gettext was only needed for the target for
uClibc toolchains, to provide the gettext functions that are normally
provided directly by glibc.
However, the gettext runtime actually does more than providing the
equivalent of those C library functions: it also provides certain
command line tools, like 'gettext' to get translated strings from the
shell. This tool is for example used by certain ecryptfs-utils scripts
to get translated strings. It is therefore necessary to be able to
build the gettext package even for glibc toolchains.

Following the introduction of the support for the musl C library, the
support of C++ exceptions or features like pthread_exit() got broken
even with other libraries such as glibc. This was reported as bug #7028.
The problem was caused by the gcc patch needed to add support for
musl, which modified the libgcc/unwind-dw2-fde-dip.c logic to decide
whether USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME should be enabled or not. It completely
removed the existing logic, replacing it by a single logic based on
the definition of TARGET_DL_ITERATE_PHDR. However, this constant gets
defined by the configure script only for Solaris, or Linux Musl
platforms. For glibc/uClibc, the configure script does not define it,
and therefore USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME is not defined, causing issues with
exception handling.
This patch fixes that by restoring all the logic of
libgcc/unwind-dw2-fde-dip.c, and just adding the musl logic as one
more case.
It has been successfully runtime tested using the two code examples
provided in bug #7208, with uClibc, musl and glibc.

This commit fixes bug #7250, by allowing more libstdc++ features to be
enabled with uClibc. libstdc++ wants an absolutely complete C99
support in the C library before enabling *any* feature that needs some
C99 functions. However, uClibc doesn't provide C99 complex numbers, so
libstdc++ disables a lot of C++ standard methods, even though they are
not related to C99 complex numbers.
A partial solution already existed in the patch
302-c99-snprintf.patch, but this commit replaces it by the more
complete 850-libstdcxx-uclibc-c99.patch, which is highly inspired by
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58393, except that it
doesn't rely on configure.ac checks, but simply on testing
defined(__UCLIBC__) like was done in 302-c99-snprintf.patch. This
allows to avoid having to autoreconf gcc, which is quite complicated
to achieve.

When ELF binaries and shared libraries are used, the internal
functions of libnftnl such as xfree() are not visible to the outside
world (their visibility is 'hidden'). Therefore, the fact that other
programs (especially nftables) may have symbols with the same name
does not cause any problem.
However, when doing static linking on a non-ELF platform (such as
Blackfin, which uses the FLAT binary format), there is no way of
encoding this visibility. Therefore, the xfree() symbols of libnftnl
becomes visible to the outside world, causing a conflict with the
xfree() symbol defined by nftables.
To solve this, this patch renames the libnftnl xfree() function to
libnftnl_xfree().
This commit fixes a problem seen after building nftables statically on
Blackfin. This problem was seen after the previous patch fixing the
autobuilder failure:
