Just been trying to build the Linaro toolchain from source on RHEL 6.5. The ABE
configure script fails to detect the packaging system on RHEL as it looks like
RPM will only be detected if it's running on a Fedora system. This patch will
instead detect RPM if the rpm binary is available (and it's not Debian/Ubuntu),
like the test for Arch/pacman.
