+util-linux: ensure the existence of directory for PATHFILES
+
+When compiling util-linux, it's possible to encounter the following error.
+     /bin/sh: line 2:: misc-utils/uuidd.8.tmp: No such file or directory
+
+This is because that the misc-utils directory doesn't exist when trying to write to
+misc-utils/uuidd.8.tmp.
+
+When generating misc-utils/uuidd.8 (or anything in PATHFILES), its directory
+may not have been created yet. So we need to ensure the existence of the directory
+to avoid the compilation error.
