For some architectures, like Xtensa or HPPA, ld from binutils requires
the output file to be a regular file, as mentioned in a bug report on
the mailing list [1].
So, use a dummy file as output file for ld, instead of /dev/null, when
trying to detect some libraries at configuration time.

This new package provides skalibs, a collection of free software / open
source C development files used for building all softwares from
skarnet.org.
Note that, though skalibs (and all skarnet softwares) follows the
"./configure; make; make install" convention, it does not behave like a
traditional autotools project:
- static libraries are installed in $prefix/usr/lib/skalibs.
- pkg-config and libtool are not used: instead a custom system called
"sysdeps" is used and locations to libraries and headers are to be
passed explicitly via options of the './configure' script.
The host variant is provided to allow building the host variants of the
other skarnet softwares.

[Thomas: remove post install target hook, do it directly in the target
installation commands.]
