Minimal defconfig

When placing the Buildroot sources under /usr/local (e.g.
/usr/local/buildroot-2014.02), GnuTLS fails at the linking stage with the
following error:

make[5]: Entering directory
`/usr/local/buildroot.git/output/build/gnutls-3.2.14/lib'
  CCLD     libgnutls.la
libtool: link: cannot find the library
`/usr/local/buildroot.git/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/local/buildroot.git/output/build/pcre-8.35/libpcre.la'
or unhandled argument
`/usr/local/buildroot.git/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/local/buildroot.git/output/build/pcre-8.35/libpcre.la'
make[5]: *** [libgnutls.la] Error 1

As you can see, the problem concerns the path of the PCRE library, which
contains 2 occurences of "/usr/local/buildroot.git/...".

The bug goes away when building from the /home/<user> directory.

I was able to reproduce the bug using a minimal defconfig two different
environments (Arch Linux and Debian 7.5 in LXC). It is present in both 2014.02
and 2014.05-rc1 (I did not test earlier releases). The defconfig targets the
Silica Pengwyn ARM board (similar to the BeagleBone), and is attached to this
bug report.

I re-did a search to be sure, and found a duplicate for this bug. I'm sorry for
the noise.
