Bugzilla Bug 33980

dev-db/cdb-0.75 ebuild fails in compiling cdb. The makefile creates a compile
macro. There are errors using the "head" command while creating this macro. (I
haven't tried to fix the macro.)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge cdb
Actual Results:  
>>> Unpacking cdb-0.75.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/cdb-0.75/work
 * Applying cdb-0.75-errno.diff...

In compiling another package (not part of Gentoo), I got the same "head `-1'
option is obsolete" message. Googling this, I see this is coming from the
newest release of GNU coreutils. Apparently, GNU is now enforcing the latest
POSIX decree that "head -1" should be banned. (OK, but now everyone has to fix
a whole bunch of stuff. Of course, we all knew about this in advance?
Right....)

Here is a proposed patch. (This is my first try at patching something, so any
suggestions (other than RTFM!) would be appreciated.):

  }

Fixed the head -1 issue in CVS.  Should be fixed now.  Please resync in about
a half hour and try it again.

Go ahead and reopen if it's still not working.
