Bug#566748: shishi: FTBFS on GNU/kFreeBSD: undefined reference to `rpl_stat'

[Petr Salinger]

Hi,

the bug is inside gnulib usage.

The configure detects that stat() does not work correctly
on 7.2 kernel and should use gnulib function instead.
But the gnulib module is not linked in libshishi.so

The problem does not affect linux kernels and will be
workarounded after GNU/kFreeBSD switches to 8.0 kernels.

The needed moduled is in db/gl/stat.c, but not in gl/ directory.
