[PATCH v3] timezone: add a configure flag to disable program install


Some distros build+install the timezone tools (zic/zdump/tzselect) outside
of glibc and use the upstream package directly.  Add a configure flag to
glibc so they can disable install of those tools.

This allows tests to run & pass regardless of the configure flag.  Only
the install of them is impacted.

2015-09-18  Mike Frysinger  <vapier@gentoo.org>

	* config.make.in (enable-timezone-tools): New variable.
	* configure.ac (AC_ARG_ENABLE(timezone-tools)): New configure flag.
	(enable_timezone_tools): Export to generated files.
	* configure: Regenerate.
	* INSTALL: Regenerate.
	* manual/install.texi (--disable-timezone-tools): Document new flag.
	* timezone/Makefile (install-sbin, install-bin-script): Wrap in a
	ifeq ($(enable-timezone-tools),yes) check.
