sys-fs/sysfsutils is broken and dead upstream.  Dependency on it needs to be
removed so we can remove it from the tree.

ebuild for pcmciautils-0.18

The dependency on libsysfs was removed in pcmciautils-018 (see http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2011-April/007751.html).

Unfortunately both the tarballs and git are nowhere to found on kernel.org, likely due to the hack. However I extracted the tarball from a Fedora 16 source rpm. 

Compile verified, run testing limited to running the resulting binary and making sure they don't instantly crash.
