The mcookie should reuse existing code, and there is definitely no need
to prefer /dev/random for this utility. See reference for explanation
about later statement.

This feature is hopefully mostly used to give MESSAGE_ID labels for
messages coming from scripts, making search of messages easy. The
logger(1) manual page update should give enough information how to use
--journald option.

The ncurses package has been providing pkg-config files for a while now.
So let's start using them to get the proper linker & compiler flags. It
can make a difference when ncurses is configured in a way that requires
extra link time flags but util-linux doesn't provide them, or when the
headers live in a weird place and util-linux can't find them.
Since the NCURSES_LIBS is always defined for the Makefile, there's no need
to gate on the HAVE_NCURSES conditional. When it's disabled, the var will
simply be empty.
With a minor tweak to how tinfo is handled, we can do the same thing -- we
just always use TINFO_LIBS in the Makefile's.

This is necessary for paranoid security guys who believe that things
like "-Wl,-z,relro" or "-Wl,-z,bind_now" is a way how to make the
world a safer place...

Currently findmnt uses libmount to get filesystem properties (and
libmount uses libblkid). This works as expected, but root permissions
are required to read the tags from the devices.
It seems better to read the information from udev db and use libblkid
as fallback solution only.

autoconf docs about *dir variables (e.g bindir):
... A corollary is that you should not use these variables except in
makefiles...
...you should not rely on AC_CONFIG_FILES to replace bindir and friends
in your shell scripts and other files; instead, let make manage their
replacement.

The global variable $(LDADD) is always used if program_LDADD is
not specified. Let's use $LDADD everywhere to avoid exceptions for
people who need to specify global $LDADD.
