Have you tested this package with uClibc-ng or musl ?

I tried to build with an experimental musl 1.1.6 based toolchain but it won't
build (lot of build errors).

Then I tried to build with a uClibc-ng powerpc toolchain used in autobuilder [1]
and powerpc-utils fail to build when librtas support is enabled.

src/drmgr/common.c:17:22: fatal error: execinfo.h No such file or directory.

But it build fine with a glibc based toolchain (build tested with the CS powerpc
2011.03 toolchain). For now, it's ok if librtas can be available on glibc
toolchains.

Also, the package should depends on !BR2_STATIC_LIBS since librtas build
unconditionally a shared library.

Otherwise, you patch looks ok.

Best regards,
Romain Naour
