liboil fails to build/upgrade

[Randall Wood]

Looking at the Liboil bugzilla database, one sees that for at least  
the last 9 months, the current version of liboil has not built  
correctly on PowerPC macs.

Hence the decision not to upgrade the port, but to attempt to work  
with the liboil maintainers to fix the port on both systems by both  
me and the Fink maintainers, where sometimes liboil would not build  
on 10.3, 10.4 ppc, or 10.4 i386.

I've added a patch file to the liboil port that was rejected by the  
liboil maintainers. It builds, things run, but may break on ppc systems.
