It turns out the the output order of "unique()" was important, andfailing to 
keep the original order (where it keeps the last instanceof recurring items) 
caused some linkage failures.

This Patch 1/3 v2 squashes opt1-reorder-unique.patch onto the originalpatch 
1/3, and updates the commit message accordingly.
It fixes the linkage failures mentioned

Attached is patch 1/3 which was at "main.patch" of that message.

About 50-70% of configure runtime was being spent inside one
function: flatten_extralibs() and callees resolve() and unique().
It manipulates strings and invoked nearly 20K (20000) subshells.
It was rewritten to avoid subshells, and ended up x50-x250 faster.

unique() now outputs a different order:
it was keeping the last instance of recurring items, now it
keeps the first. It affects libs order at ffbuild/config.{mak,sh} -
but I don't think it matters. If it does, "opt1-reorder-unique.patch"
restores the original order. Let me know if/why it matters and I'll
squash it and update the commit message accordingly if required.

 Please use git send-email to send your patches, or at least send each

seem to contain multiple patches one after another, which makes them 
very hard to follow.

But nice work! Let's hope this does not cause any regressions.

Subject: [PATCH] configure: flatten_extralibs_wrapper(): speedup x50 - x200

Currently configure spends 50-70% of its runtime inside a single
function: flatten_extralibs[_wrapper] - which does string processing.

During its run, nearly 20K command substitutions (subshells) are used,
including its callees unique() and resolve(), which is the reason
for its lengthy run.

This commit avoids all subshells during its execution, speeding it up
by about two orders of magnitude, and reducing the overall configure
runtime by 50-70% .

resolve() is rewritten to avoid subshells, and in unique() and
flatten_extralibs() we "inline" the filter[_out] functionality.

Note that logically, "unique" functionality has more than one possible
output (depending on which of the recurring items is kept). As it
turns out, other parts expect the last recurring item to be kept
(which was the original behavior of uniqie()). This patch preservs
its output order.
