libc/glibc: workaround for autoconf'ed define of caddr_t

When building canadian cross compiler, I have some trouble with
configure defining caddr_t as a macro, like:
#define caddr_t char *

When combined with the types.h where caddr_t is protected together
with daddr_t, the typedef of caddr_t breaks.

This patch works around it by protecting the caddr_t typedef
specifically.

I am uncertain as to the real cause and solution to this :-(

    11       The sstrip utility, to maximise the striping of ELF binaries
    12       (executables and libraries).
    13       
    14       Buildroot version, forked off the original from ELFkickers.
    15       This one is somewhat maintained by the buildroot guys.
    16       Supports big-endian systems.
    17       
    18       NOTE! Please read.
    19         sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few
    20         shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it
    21         does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
