Well, find attached an updated pkg-avail script that does just that.

Please note however that the script is not bullet-proof, neither when adding
the _AVAILABLE symbols, nor when using them. It avoids mangling simple cases
(such as: "depends on PKG_FOO||PKG_BAR" and stuff like that) and thus misses
some of the dependencies, but may still butcher other places. :-/

Enough for today, more tomorrow...
