If build host perl (and other tools) is old and we use some kind
of toolchain to provide recent perl/python/etc to the OE build
we still locked to use build host perl due to hardcoded shebang
lines in autoconf scripts.
Behaviour was observed with Enterprise Linux 6 and devtoolset
toolchain from SCL (Software Collections) used to provide recent
version of perl (not provided with default buildtools-tarball).
Pass /usr/bin/env perl in ac_cv_path_PERL configuration variables
for class-native and class-nativesdk. Use patch to autoconf to replace
-w option in shebang line with modern way to enable warnings on perl
(i.e. "use warnings").
Also add nativesdk-m4 and nativesdk-gnu-config to RDEPENDS to bring
runtime dependencies inline with other targets.
Note that ac_cv_path_PERL must be valid perl interpreter path
since configure will check perl version and Flock implementation.
It is not possible currently to use nativeperl from native
sysroot because autoconf does not DEPENDS on perl-native (and
doing so fails due to circular dependencies). Only possible
solution is to overwrite shebangs with nativeperl somewhere at
do_install() and update RDEPENDS for class-native. Or add perl
symlinks to nativeperl in sysroot.
For now it seems good to use perl found by /usr/bin/env from
autoconf-native.

At the start of every configure script, the check for solaris 'print' causes
significant problems on a linux machine with dash as /bin/sh since it triggers
the execution of "print" which on some linux systems is a perl script which is
part of mailcap. Worse, this perl script calls "which file" and if successful
ignores the path file was found in and just runs "file" without a path. Each
execution causes PATH to be searched. In something like gettext with multiple
configure scripts, this is worth something like 30,000 syscalls of which 3,000
are execs.
Simply assuming the shell's printf function works cuts out all the fork overhead
and when parallel tasks are running, this overhead appears to be significant.

Since 2004 we've been carrying a patch[1] make autoreconf pass --foreign to
automake. Presumably at the time this was due to many upstreams using
hand-coded bootstrap scripts that passed --foreign manually, but we were using
autoreconf. These days many projects have added foreign to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE and
use autoreconf directly, so this patch isn't as critical as it used to be.

The usual autoheader warning is due to AC_DEFINE variables not having a
description. This results in no variable being defined in config.h, which leads
to code behaving as if the test failed when it actually succeeded.
This patch was introduced to OpenEmbedded back in 2004:
http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded/commit/?id=5eab06d132cb2895fd579f5cedffbb54c27794f8
There is no rationale for the patch so I suspect this is due to the warnings
being fatal and the submitter not understanding that the problem is more than
cosmetic.

The path_prog_fixes.patch was used for fixing the perl path, but the
do_install_append() can do it, so remove this patch.

Libtool scripts were finding bash was /bin/sh and then using bashisms which
then got into sstate and used on machines where /bin/sh might be dash.
This changes things to search for bash first since its preferred. We then hardcode
bash into the scripts which is more correct.
This does mean we have a dependency on bash but many of our scripts have
that anyway.

This code is only relevant for AIX and causes
problems with OE QA sniffer which detects -L/usr/local/lib
on linker commandline during cross compile and rightly barfs
This only happens when getloadavg() is not found in libc
so we do not reach that code with eglibc but only with uclibc
