Thanks for your contribution! I applied your patch to the next branch
(so this patch will be part of the 2015.11 release in november, but
not of the upcoming 2015.08 release).

However, I had to do quite a few changes compared to your submission:

    [Thomas:
      - add package in package/Config.in, to make it visible in menuconfig
      - make the openssl, libnl and libxml2 dependencies optional, since
        they are definitely not mandatory
      - add README to the license files, since it contains useful
        licensing related information.
      - remove custom INSTALL_STAGING_OPTS and INSTALL_TARGET_OPTS since
        the package uses automake.
      - add missing final newline in Config.in and .mk file.]

You can look at the final commit at:

  http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?h=next&id=d45e6bf09d0413742457b371762b09e69cf22829

and compare it to your original submission, to see the changes that
have been made. The most important issues were: 1/ that
package/ibrcommon/Config.in was not included in package/Config.in and
2/ that the openssl, libxml2 and libnl dependencies were optional not
mandatory.

Thanks!

Thomas
