Gentoo bundles flac 1.2.1 with numerous patches applied.

Some of these patches are already included in upstream flac-dev (for
example the gcc 4.3 cstring issue).

Below are the patches supplied by Gentoo (merged against MASTER) and with
the Changelog explanations of them as well as the discussion link
surrounding the patch:

*flac-9999-asm.patch:*
*28 Sep 2007; Samuli Suominen <[email protected]>*
+files/flac-1.2.1-asm.patch,
  Fix TEXTRELs using patch from PaX Team from bug 193222 and while at it,
  attempt to clean up ebuild a bit. Revert last commit restoring elibtoolize
  for fbsd since eautoreconf allready does libtoolize.

*Gentoo bug where this is discussed:*
*https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=193222*

*flac-9999-asneeded.patch*
*20 Sep 2007; Samuli Suominen <[email protected]>*
  +files/flac-1.2.1-asneeded.patch,
  Version bump.

*There isn't a bug detailing why this patch is here, but I believe it's to
allow the --as-needed flag to the bfd linker.  More information can be
found here:*

*flac-9999-ogg-m4.patch*
*28 Mar 2011; Arun Raghavan <[email protected]>*
  +files/flac-1.2.1-ogg-m4.patch:
  Update the shipped version of ogg.m4 so that users of libflac don't get a
ton
  of libtool warnings while linking.

*There isn't a bug detailing why this patch is here, but the Changelog
explanation is sufficient.*

Thanks for taking a look!
