Sorry for the long delay. I finally applied your patch, but after
making some significant changes:

    [Thomas:
    - Added comments about the upstream status in existing patches
    - Added a patch fixing an autoreconf issue
    - Added a patch adding a missing "extern" on a variable to fix build
      with gcc 10
    - Removed the glibc dependency by using the new libexecinfo package
    - Drastically simplified the complex libcoap disabling and client-only
      mode vs. OpenJDK issue. libcoap support is now forcefully disabled,
      and client-mode only option is made invisible when OpenJDK is
      enabled.
    - Fixed the license information;
    - Added missing host-pkgconf
    ]

Thanks!

Thomas
