Ok, now I've a (hmm, quite huge?) patch for binutils-config, to do that
libpath-magic in the wrapper instead of a shell-script by
native-cctools.

There are three things:
1) as we don't want C++ here, I've added stringutil.[ch] to have easy
   fully-dynamic string- and arglist-handling.
   Maybe this also could be useful for ld-wrapper.c.

2) the aix-specific libpath-logic, designed as *plugin* to ld-wrapper.

3) We should not copy the sources to ${T}, but ${WORKDIR} instead,
   because with FEATURE=keepwork, ${T} was cleaned between
   src_unpack and src_compile.
