Could you add an entry in the DEVELOPERS file for this new package, so
that you can be notified when there are build issues ?

I'm still not entirely convinced by a patch adding a license file. It
would definitely be useful to convince upstream to add this license
file, but I'm not sure we want to carry patches in Buildroot adding
license files.

Peter, Arnout, Yann, any comment on this ?

--disable-documentation is already passed by the autotools-package
infrastructure, so it isn't needed.

Besides those minor issues, the rest looks good to me. Thanks!
