SMLinux 2f32197590 -> Overhauled build files in base. Almost all variable names in all build files are now in lower case to

prevent accidents with the general build environment. More changes in the build system and other section
   build files to follow.
-> Fixed library path in base/libical build file to prevent creation of lib64 directory
-> Fixed code that searches for an SMBuild file inside a package installer when installing from a package
   using base/pkgtools's installpkg script
-> Added a missing brace in base/findutils build file
-> Upgraded base/ntfs-3g to 2021.8.22
-> Temporarily removed rm -f command used to discard man pages in base/openssl build file
-> Added if/else check in base/rust build file to only extract rust toolchain in the absence of
   rust installation on the system
-> Upgraded base/syssstat to 12.5.5

!!!! THIS SOURCE IS NOT FOR THE RASPBERRY PI KERNEL !!!!

The kernel configuration file .config was taken from slackware-current
meant for use in 'huge' kernel 5.4.41 as slackware devs term it.

I've disabled the ORC unwinder and am instead using frame pointer in the below
location using <make menuconfig> and the kernel builds fine.

Kernel hacking -> Choose kernel unwinder

The kernel build generates errors like these if ORC unwinder is chosen and
ultimately fails:
