Patch to use systemlibs with cmake

0.8.1 has been released.

I was busy preparing an update to it, but my local testbuild hit this but if new code:

/* Build-time check that the Irrlicht we're building against works for us.
 * Should help prevent distros building against an incompatible library.
 */

#if IRRLICHT_VERSION_MAJOR < 1 || IRRLICHT_VERSION_MINOR < 7 || \
    _IRR_MATERIAL_MAX_TEXTURES_ < 8 || !defined(_IRR_COMPILE_WITH_OPENGL_) || \
    !defined(_IRR_COMPILE_WITH_B3D_LOADER_)
#error "Building against an incompatible Irrlicht. Distros, please use the included version."
#endif

So I'm filing a bug against irrlicht to bump _IRR_MATERIAL_MAX_TEXTURES_ to 8 (which is the problem) and rebuild. Once that is done, we should be good to go.

Note that the autotools stuff still includes with supertuxkart is even more broken with 0.8.1 then it was with 0.8, it seems it is no longer maintained. So I've switched to cmake in my local spec-file for 0.8.1

This requires a little patch to build against system libs. I'll attach the patch and my modified spec here, in case someone else wants to work on this before I get around to it.
