Richard W.M. Jones [Fri, 22 Jul 2011 10:12:52 +0000 (11:12 +0100)]
perl: Fix CCFLAGS for Perl 5.14.

A change to ExtUtils::CBuilder in Perl 5.14 causes CCFLAGS to
completely replace, rather than appending, the C flags.

The unfortunate consequence of this is that vital flags such as
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 are missing.  For 32 bit code, this means you
get binary-incompatible code that completely fails to load.

For further analysis see:

http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2011/04/msg171535.html

This commit changes CCFLAGS so that it appends to the existing
$Config{ccflags} instead of replacing it.  On earlier versions of Perl
this means we get two copies of the flags, which is unfortunate but
should be safe.

filesystem has no type (eg when it is empty).  Previously this would
return an error.  Now it returns empty string "".

We did not document this either way.  Making it return empty string is
consistent with vfs-label and vfs-uuid.

Change download_to_tmp so it can work with multi-root operating systems.

The previous guestfs___download_to_tmp function did not handle
multiboot correctly.  In particular it used the same cache name
for downloaded files from different roots, which could have caused
things like applications in each root to be confused.

This changes the function so that the cache filename is prefixed
with the root / fs number, eg. $tmpdir/0-Name instead of $tmpdir/Name.

This change also requires the function to return the new name, so
all places in the code which called this function had to be
updated.
