Add a patch to the ageing glibc-2.3.6 to make it compile on stupid shells that have a defective implementation of echo.

Thanks to Willy Tarreau for pointing to the patch.

Use printf instead of echo for some shells.
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/libc-alpha/2005-02/msg00123.html
This patch does not generate invalid csu/version-info.h which has
unterminating " line because some /bin/sh cannot parse correctly. The
previous discussion was:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-08/msg00129.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-08/msg00145.html
This patch gets rid of all this issue because the conclusion of the
discussion was to use printf instead of echo. Roland, could you look
at it again?
