Doing "aclocal && automake && autoconf" as the autobook suggests
doesn't change things... =(
(or: it does seldom work, but usually doesn't.. that's why I'm
thinking about granularity in NT's timekeeping)
automake 1.7.x and later require autoconf-2.54 or newer. Ordinarily,
the wrapper scripts in the cygwin autotools suite ensure that
"matching" versions are called -- unless your installation is not
fully uptodate.
That's not the point: I have no problem on my cybwin developement
machine: the problem is that ./configure-generated Makefile tries to
call the autotools on each different machine, even in no-one changed
configure.in or Makefile.am
The client machine shouldn't need autotools or the know-how to use them,
right?
