Thomas Petazzoni 2446e80b84 package/brltty: use host pkg-config when building host tools
brltty builds host tools which rely on the expat library, and
pkg-config is used to detect the expat library.

Since commit cd16e18584 ("pkgconf:
always keep system libs"), the wrapper script added
--keep-system-libs, which adds a -L$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib to the
pkg-config results instead of just -lexpat. So, previously, by chance,
the pkg-config result for the target expat was "good enough" for the
host expat as well. But now that -L$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib is added, it
breaks the build in all sort of ways as obviously building host
binaries with the library search path pointing to $(STAGING_DIR) is
not a good idea.

To fix that, this commit adjusts the brltty build system so that the
PKG_CONFIG_FOR_BUILD variable is used when using pkg-config to build
host binaries.

Many thanks to the initial work from Fabrice Fontaine at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1238163/ which provided an initial
starting point for this investigation.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
