-Subject: [PATCH] Unittest: Fix missing librt and libm during native compilation
-
-civetweb looks for librt and libm in weird places and for native build
-this fails:
-
-    | ../third_party/lib/libcheck.a(check.c.o): In function `tcase_create':
-    | build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/civetweb-native/1.10-r0/build/third_party/src/check-unit-test-framework/src/check.c:145: undefined reference to `floor'
-    | build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/civetweb-native/1.10-r0/build/third_party/src/check-unit-test-framework/src/check.c:148: undefined reference to `floor'
-
-These are needed dependencies so try regular system linkage in such
-case.

+-lm and -lrt is all we need
