Ignacy Gawędzki cd9c604c96 package/fakedate: fix finding the right date executable
Currently, we look for the actual date be easrching form the end of the
PATH, and keeping the last-found date that occurs after the wrapper.

However, in some cases, the wrapper will be the last item in the PATH.
This is the cae when users already have the HOST_DIR/bin at the end of
their PATH, à-la:  PATH="${PATH}:/path/to/buildroot/output/host/bin"

In this case, we would not find any matching date.

The issue is that Buildroot adds HOST_DIR/bin at the beginning of the
PATH, so the real date will be to be found after the HOST_DIR that is
early in the PATH, but before the HOST_DIR that is at the end.

We fix the issue by searching the PATH as it is expecte to be searched,
shoud Buildroot had not added its date wrapper: we use the first date
executable that is found in the PATH, starting from the beginning, that
is after our wrapper, abd that is not the wrapper itself.

  - iterate in order from first-to-last
  - stop on the first occurence
  - handle the case where no date was found
  - extend and expand the commit log

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 OFTC IRC.
