Add the base Enlightenment Foundation Libraries - eina, eet, evas, ecore, embryo, and edje.
Note that embryo wont be used, but I'm not sure yet if you can build edje without it.

40 *
41 * Eina module provides some helpers over POSIX dlopen(). It is not
42 * meant to replace, abstract or make a "portable" version of the
43 * POSIX, but enhance its usage by defining some good practices.
44 *
45 * Modules are created with eina_module_new() and later loaded with
46 * eina_module_load(). Loads are reference counted and there must be
47 * the same number of eina_module_unload() in order to have it to call
48 * dlclose(). This makes simple to have different users for the same
49 * module.
50 *
51 * The loaded shared objects may have two visible functions that will
52 * be called and might provide initialization and shutdown
53 * proceedures. The symbols are @c __eina_module_init and
54 * @c __eina_module_shutdown and will be defined by the macros
55 * EINA_MODULE_INIT() and EINA_MODULE_SHUTDOWN().
56 *
57 * There are some helpers to automatically create modules based on
58 * directory listing. See eina_module_arch_list_get(),
59 * eina_module_list_get() and eina_module_find().
