fun compiling xpt cvs

[Bruno Postle]

Ok, I've grabbed updated autoconf and automake packages for redhat-7.3

Redhat in their wisdom default-installs both the old and new version of
these packages:

   automake-1.4p5-2 automake15-1.5-2 autoconf-2.13-14 autoconf253-2.53-3
 
..so in order to use the new autoconf, I had to modify the mkbuild
script like this:

   echo "Running aclocal"
   # aclocal
   aclocal-1.5
   echo "Running autoconf"
   # autoconf
   autoconf-2.53
   echo "Libtoolizing"
   libtoolize --automake
   echo "Running automake"
   # automake -a
   automake-1.5 -a

I get some warnings:

   c:10: warning: do not use m4_patsubst: use patsubst or m4_bpatsubst
   configure.ac:22: warning: do not use m4_regexp: use regexp or m4_bregexp
   automake-1.5: configure.ac: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' must be used

..but it does generate a working configure script, though make fails:

Any ideas?
