- Switch from patching check.t, sh.h and Build.sh to using
KSH_VERSIONNAME_VENDOR_EXT and appending to CPPFLAGS beforehand
- Remove qemu/ppc patches that are upstreamed/no longer necessary
- Drop LTO support which was already always disabled
- Handle newer GCC note output during configure stage
- Ensure KSH_VERSIONNAME_VENDOR_EXT is always set to something,
because the patch deviating from upstream is always applied
- Remove virt-what from build dependencies, it just fails or,
worse, makes the package unresolvable; also from lewellyn
