[Clfs-support] Package Update Script

[William Harrington]

Greetings,

Bruce Dubbs, from the LFS project, shared a php script he uses to let  
him know when there are new packages updated based on the development  
book.

I've modified it to work with our git book. There are a few packages  
which it has issues with, mostly those at freecode. And a few others.  
Basically it grabs the current download locations and versions from  
the git book and then checks the download locations for new versions.  
Some places like cloog and libee won't let you do a listing to see  
which files are new. So not sure how to deal with that.

People who want to see what I'm talking about can download it run it  
with php after editing their email information in the script (it will  
email you the results). You can modify it to print out the table  
rather than email, though.
