Our need for "make external" was plagued with problems. First and formost, it was annoying - people need to be told to run "make all external" instead of just "make". And as a Vlad recently discovered, it strangely relied on a debug-mode build to have happened, and also "make clean" doesn't undo what "make external" did. "make external" had a glorious past, but today all that was left of it is 3 measly tests which we compile from external/glibc-testsuite: malloc, getcwd and clock. These tiny tests - 3 out of 796 tests (!!) in the full glibc test suite - aren't really important enough to cause all this "make external" mess. So this patch removes them, and the need for a "make external". If we'll ever want to bring back these tests, I think we need to delete the partial external/glibc-testsuite directory, and bring the *full* glibc test suite of 796 tests, into a separate module. The glibc test suite can be downloaded together with the glibc source code - they are all files named tst-*.c in the glibc source tree. Signed-off-by:
