This is not normal, and should be investigated. It is very likely that
Buildroot users will have OpenSSL development files installed on their
host, and this should not conflict with the build. We don't want to
force people to rename /usr/include/openssl to /usr/include/openssl.old.

If you have issues in finding what's going on, please report with more
details, i.e with the config.log generated by netatalk ./configure
script. We can help you investigating this.

The berkeleydb bump should be in a separate patch.

Indentation is wrong here:

 * one tab before "select" and "help"
 * one tab + two spaces before the help text itself

The init script is quite complicated, but I guess it's because netatalk
is complicated :)

This line isn't doing anything. Unless I'm wrong, we don't do anything
with the <pkg>_CFLAGS variable.

This should be $(STAGING_DIR)/usr. We use the $() syntax everywhere to
access make variables.

No, don't override the prefix, it should remain to its default value
passed by the autotargets infrastructure, which is /usr.
