The real issue is in gnulib where it should be fixed
but gnulib gets imported in source into various components
and that may take a while. So lets fix the componnets versions
and as/if they land in new gnulib with a fix we can take
it off.

As can be seen here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2014-11/msg00001.html
other people have run into the headache of trying to cross compile
coreutils, with the "help2man" problem (assumes host can run the
target binaries with "--help" arg to collect data for manpage.)
And since "current wisdom is this is working as intended" we are
largely left with no choice but to use the same solution and
abandon trying to generate the man pages at build time. So here
we import prebuilt manpages.

We had a couple patches to 1) deal with missing perl and 2) deal
with the perl-less "dummy" help2man fallout, but in the end, they
achieve no purpose whatsoever, since they just populate the doc
RPM with manpages like this one:
NAME
chmod - a GNU coreutils 8.22 program
DESCRIPTION
OOOPS! Due to the lack of perl on the build system, we were
unable to create a proper manual page for chmod.
As the above serves no purpose whatsoever, and since the concept
of running the binaries to capture the "--help" text output is
completely broken for cross compiles, lets just decouple man page
generation from the building of coreutils entirely so it paves the
way for importing pre-generated manpages.
