Hello,

the same mysterious thing sometimes happen here as well ; the "make"
command will start calling the configuration scripts again. I also
suspected some time-stamp related reasons (sometimes it happens after CVS
operations that might change the timestamps) but I didn't found any
solutions and just let the scripts run through...

But I'll try libtoolize --copy --force next time.

I have the same problems here ; sometimes it says the pkg-config command
is missing and I need to do

	export PKG_CONFIG=pkg-config

I did not remember to try with gcc-3.4.  :(  I'll do it today and make the
changes needed in CVS.
