It seems that, for whatever reason in this case,
the function "vardef ($var, $cond)" does not work
while "$var->def ($cond)" does work for conditionals.
Also, do not define it conditionally when defined unconditionally.
Even though the reordering patch would make that functionally sound,
it still throws a warning which can cause a build to fail
when warnings are treated as errors.
Instead, just add BUILT_SOURCES to every existing case
rather than only when BUILT_SOURCES is defined.

For the building of some packages, it is helpful
to completely clean the packaged release copy of the source,
however this usually deletes libtool if used,
otherwise causing the need to run the bootstrap script twice.
Not deleting libtool allows compilation to continue directly
after cleaning pre-generated files in the package distribution.

Automake previously makes rules for the target maintainer-clean
to remove both the contents of MAINTAINERCLEANFILES and BUILT_SOURCES.
In order to have finer control over what is removed,
let there only be a rule for deleting MAINTAINERCLEANFILES,
and set MAINTAINERCLEANFILES to a default value of BUILT_SOURCES
if only conditional or missing, and append BUILT_SOURCES if user-defined.
In order to maintain conditional values for MAINTAINERCLEANFILES
while keeping a default value, change the behavior of automake
to output unconditional definitions before conditions.

The latest automake version 1.17 includes a restriction against whitespace
for the configure variable $PERL, which is set to "/usr/bin/env perl"
for portability reasons with products like the SDK.
Instead of waiting until the next version of automake is released
for this error to be converted to a warning,
set the shebang of automake and aclocal manually with a patch.
In past git history, these lines have been patched before,
but only to remove the "-w" flag in favor of setting global warnings
in the script itself so that env does not strip the option.
The other purposes of Perl during building can use
the static staging directory path without any limitations.
Also, the configure variable "am_cv_prog_PERL_ithreads"
for the detection of Perl threads support
has been removed since 2013 in favor of dynamic runtime detection.
Remove our manual setting of this variable value as it has no effect.

This reverts commit b930ce3bf7.
Bump to 1.17 broke SDK portability as it partially reverted commit
("automake: portability fixes") which made Perl PATH "/usr/bin/env perl"
as that is portable, as otherwise automake will set the absolute path to
the Perl binary and this will then fail when using SDK on a different
system as that PATH is not present.
So, since fixing this would require backport of upstream commit
("configure: make perl path with whitespace a warning, not error.") which
requires autoreconf to be done in order for configure to get regenerated
we cannot do it because at that time we do not have automake built.
So, for now revert the bump until upstream makes a new release.

In the light of recent XZ events, and fundamental XZ issues lets work on
moving away from using XZ.
So, use gz compressed tarballs as sources whenever possible.
dwarves only offers bz2 compressed tarballs, so use those as size
difference is minor compared to XZ.

GNU standards requires certain files at the top-level directory
of a package that automake is used with, mostly documentation.
If one of these files happens to be missing, autoreconf would fail.
Move these file requirements to the more strict 'GNITS' setting.

An old patch attempted to harmonize the way that
both Openwrt and Automake uses the $(V) variable.
However, it was reverted because of the side-effects.
This method is more simple and just
allows Automake to accept any string
as part of the verbosity toggle,
falling back to the default if null.

Instead of having a somewhat random list of aclocal symlinks
which are named with the API versioning scheme,
install a symlink for every API version since 1.11
(the first release after Automake was moved to git)
using the API version number from the version of automake
that is currently in openwrt.
Automake API versioning does not include the patch level number.

The configure option datarootdir
defaults to PREFIX/share.
The Host/Clean define should be Host/Uninstall
otherwise it is removing the build directory
before there is a chance to try "make uninstall"
in that directory.
Host/Clean/Default is no longer defined.
Consolidate the install stage with Host/Uninstall,
since it is essentially uninstalling before installing.

Before this commit, it was assumed that aclocal.real is in the PATH. While
this was fine for the normal build workflow, this led to some issues if
make TOPDIR="$(pwd)" -C "$pkgdir" compile
was called manually. The command failed with:
/home/.../openwrt/staging_dir/host/bin/aclocal: line 2: aclocal.real: command not found
autoreconf: /home/.../openwrt/staging_dir/host/bin/aclocal failed with exit status: 127
After the commit, the package is built sucessfully.

This reverts commit 43365ca662 ("Do not use $(V) - force AM_V=1") as
it breaks verbose output in automake packages, deviating from the
upstream and expected behaviour.
As you can see, neither make command outputs the expected verbose
compile command lines:
```
$ make package/mtd-utils/{clean,compile} V=sc
...
CCLD lsmtd
CC nand-utils/nanddump.o
CCLD nanddump
...
```
```
$ make -C build_dir/target*/mtd-utils-2.1.1 clean
...
$ make -C build_dir/target*/mtd-utils-2.1.1 V=1
...
CC lib/libmtd.o
CC lib/libfec.o
CC lib/common.o
CC lib/libcrc32.o
```
The original reason for this commit was some packages failing to build
if V is set to something other than 0 or 1. See the discussion in PR
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/2481 for how to fix this in the
package Makefile.

The rework of the host tools discovery caused automake to embed
absolute paths to staging_dir/host/bin/perl into the shebang
of the generated automake executables.
Switch to the portable "/usr/bin/env perl" and enable global

OpenWrt hides verbose output by default,

Projects using silent-rules might otherwise fail to compile.
This is due to the following resulting Makefile code:
AM_V_P = $(am__v_P_$(V))
am__v_P_ = $(am__v_P_$(AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY))
am__v_P_0 = false
am__v_P_1 = :
Automake directly uses $(V) for variable name expansion
which fails if $(V) is set to sth. else other than '0' or '1'.
This patch forces automake to not take $(V) into account
but to always use the default config for verbosity.
A better approach would be to actually take $(V) into account,
however not just pass it through (AM_V='$(V)') but
set AM_V to 0 if $V=0 / unset and to 1 otherwise.
This plan however is foiled due to my frustration about
automake as well as my lack of m4 skills.
