* add lib/parse-date.y to build system
* add necessary autotools stuff to generate .c on the fly
(autotools are smart enough to add generated file to tarball)
* check for bison version by ./autogen.sh
* add non-wanted junk to .gitignore
With some modification by J William Piggott with regard to
moving the parse-date API into timeutils.h

The requirement for gettext 0.18 was introduced by commit e3e16717
to pass --no-wrap option to msgmerge tool, which I guess improves
the process of updating po files for translators. At the same time,
unfortunately, it makes building from git fail on a RHEL/CentOS 6
system, as it comes with gettext 0.17.
Use the existing hack in autogen.sh to allow building with gettext 0.17,
with an appropriate warning so that the user is aware:
warning: forcing autopoint to use old gettext 0.17
The only negative side effect of this patch I am aware of is
if gettext-0.17 is used, then --no-wrap is not being passed
to msgmerge (although msgmerge 1.17 already supports it), because
Makefile.in.in that comes with gettext 0.17 doesn't have MSGMERGE_OPTIONS.
From my POV, this is way better than to not being able to build.
NOTE if gettext 0.18.3 is installed, it is used and this patch
doesn't change anything; it only allows gettext 1.17 to be used
if this is all we have.

The system libtool program has architecture dependent behaviour. It is
therefore unavailable in cross build environments. The only place it was
used in util-linux is autogen.sh to determine the availability of
libtool. All other places correctly use libtoolize or
$(top_builddir)/libtool.

We avoid or fix many portability issues.
The first more generic "sort --version-sort" solution was almost
useless anyway because autopoint itself can also only deal with
a few hardcoded versions.

We add a little hack for backward compatibility on systems with
older gettext installed

The commit will will use `You must have libtool version...' message
when libtoolize is missing. Earlier the error message less helpful.

The commit 60a4edd662 temporary disabled
libtool-2 in autogen.sh. It seems that libtool-2 in available in
many distributions now, so we don't have to manage the generated .m4
libtool files in git anymore.

Currently gtk-doc is optional. Unfortunately, the ./configure script
still depends on GTK_DOC_CHECK macro and shlibs/blkid/docs/Makefile.am
depends on gtk-doc.make.
It seems that the best solution is to add gtk-doc.[make,m4] files to
the repository.

We require libtool-2 (because old 1.5.x is crap). Unfortunately,
libtool-2 is still not available in many Linux distributions -- now I
see it in unstable distributions only. The painless way how to resolve
this problem is to __temporary__ commit generated libtool-2 stuff to
our repository.

We need an infrastructure for stared libraries. The latest libtool-2
seems useful and it's definitely better than the old 1.5 crap.
You need to install libtool-2 when you want to run ./autogen.sh script
after checkout from git repository.

With this patch, you can define autotool options when you
need to generate build-system. For example:
$ AM_OPTS="--copy" ./autogen.sh

"automake" calls "autoconf" internally, to trace the expansion of
configure.ac. So it is more natural to call "autoconf" before
"automake".

The cal command generates output that depends on time(). For reliable
regression tests we need to use still same time. It seems that LD_PRELOAD is
pretty simple way.

The generated autotools stuff shouldn't be maintained by SCM. After check out
from git use ./autogen.sh. For more details see README.devel.
