Hi,
      I'm having trouble building SystemTap from the latest snapshot. The
./configure errors out with:

configure: error: systemtap requires elfutils 0.116+

even though I have 0.119 installed

[sperryd@ibm src]$ rpm -qa |grep elfutil
elfutils-0.119-1
elfutils-libs-0.119-1
elfutils-libelf-0.119-1
elfutils-libelf-devel-0.119-1

Is there something special I need to do with patching elfutils?

Thanks
Dave Sperry
