With our current backtrace dumps I quite oftenly find that in case of segfaults, which combined with assert failures are the most common crash cause, I cannot easily see what value the dereferenced pointer held.
To be able to see this the exception handler will now invoke the "disassemble" and "info registers" commands when producing a back trace using GDB. This gives us the ability to see the precise assembly instruction that triggered the crash, together with the value of the register that was used as pointer.

Exception is when generating the .wz files, where we need the path to the build directory and building a reverse relative path to $(srcdir) will be messy.
Also silence submake.mk a great deal.
Bug #11883 should be fixed now for the most part.

Their use is currently flawed, since it will not work in directories with spaces in them... (

- Use PACKAGE, PACKAGE_VERSION, remove VERSION
- Allow out-of-source-dir builds (mkdir build && cd build && make -f ../Makefile.raw)
- Move config.mk from $(top_srcdir)/makerules/config.mk to $(top_builddir)/config.mk
When keeping current behaviour (srcdir=builddir), this means: Move it from makerules into the main directory

* Use strlcpy for copying strings instead of snprintf "%s"
* Don't cast the return value from vsnprintf to (void)
* When we use va_start make sure to use va_end as well...
* Fix indentation
