When run rpm2cpio, it fails with segmentation fault. The root cause is
no macro "_db_path" defined, when query its value get nothing then
cause segment fault.

Add patch to parse macro files first to fix this problem.

In the RPM2CPIO case, I'm not sure that we want to exit here. It's certainly reasonable for the config files to be unavailable to us.

If the problem is that _dbpath is undefined (and it's needed for some reason), my suggestion is that "some value" be defined, even if it's to a non-existent location. It's be even better if we could simply avoid using the _dbpath at all in the rpm2cpio code.

(Note, to folks reading this. Normally in oe-core, if we use rpm2cpio, we're actually using a shell script version which does not have this problem. The rpm2cpio -binary- is used by people on the target or sometimes via the SDK to extract SRPM or RPM packages...)
