Not sure the exact reason, but notice that the failures occur at install
time, not build time. And even then, the Makefile is still trying to
compile some stuff.

libcap is a generic package, and I noticed that the build and install
commands do not use the same environment:

    define HOST_LIBCAP_BUILD_CMDS
        $(HOST_MAKE_ENV) $(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) $(MAKE) -C $(@D) \
            $(HOST_LIBCAP_MAKE_FLAGS)
    endef

    define HOST_LIBCAP_INSTALL_CMDS
        $(HOST_MAKE_ENV) $(MAKE) -C $(@D) $(HOST_LIBCAP_MAKE_FLAGS) install
    endef

So I wonder if, at least for sanity sake, we should not just add
$(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) in the environment for the install commands too.

Also, notice spurious errors from ldconfig:

    /sbin/ldconfig
    /sbin/ldconfig.real: Can't create temporary cache file /etc/ld.so.cache~: Permission denied
    make[5]: [Makefile:162: install-shared-psx] Error 1 (ignored)

(ldconfig is a wrapper around ldconfig.real, specific to debian and.or
ubuntu I guess)
