Include the object file directly from the libalpm version comparison code as it is the only thing we need. This drops the dependency of vercmp on libalpm and all of the stuff we know it drags in.

After applying the four patches from this patchset:
readelf -d src/util/vercmp
Dynamic section at offset 0xdfc contains 21 entries: Tag Type Name/Value 0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libssp.so.0] 0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.6] ...
libssp is part of gcc(-libs), so linking to that is probably not a disaster. But is it still not needed for the current Arch vercmp so may be worth looking into.
The ssp comes from here: http://projects.archlinux.org/pacman.git/tree/configure.ac#n291
See the GCC_STACK_PROTECT_* macros listed there, which are turned on in debug builds (and for now not in production builds, although there is a feature request in Arch in general to add that).
Ugh... I can believe I did not think about that! Full ack on all patches then. Allan
