Combine libraries: spl, avl, efi, share, unicode. These libraries, which are an artifact of the ZoL development process, conflict with packages that are already in distribution: * libspl: SPL Programming Language * libavl: AVL for Linux * libefi: GRUB And these libraries are potential conflicts: * libshare: the Linux Mount Manager * libunicode: Perl and Python Recompose these five ZoL components into the four libraries that are conventionally provided by Solaris and FreeBSD systems: + libnvpair + libuutil + libzpool + libzfs This change resolves the name conflict, makes ZoL more compatible with existing software that uses autotools to detect ZFS, and allows pkg-zfs to better reflect the official Debian kFreeBSD packaging.

Let libnvpair be linked independently of libzfs. Autoconf will fail to detect the ZoL libnvpair on systems that do not implicitly link library runtime dependencies, which is anything that has the GCC 4.5 DCO update. Build libuutil before libnvpair, and put it on the the LDADD line of the libnvpair automake template.
