#3 autotools required for build
The CVS version as of today (2003-08-16) doesn't
compile unless you have autotools installed. I'm not an
autotools expert (far from it), but this is not
necessary - I can't think of any other program to
require this.
Log below.
Ciao, Patrick
[ configure works fine ]

WARNING: `aclocal-1.4' is missing on your system. You
should only need it if
you modified `acinclude.m4' or `configure.ac'.
You might want
to install the `Automake' and `Perl' packages.
Grab them from
any GNU archive site.

Just checked: Neither 0.9.9 nor 0.9.10 show this behaviour,
both compile just fine out of the box.

You may be right, but I cannot check (all my systems have
auto* installed). I suppose some files are missing in CVS,
but I cannot tell you which one (and I don't want to add
useless files). Some of these files may be added
automagically to the release by auto*.
Could you please check which files from the .tar.gz are
missing in the CVS version, copy them in one by one, and
then tell me which file(s) are necessary. I will then add
them to the CVS repository.
If you need an up-to-date .tar.gz, I'll send you one as a
personal email.

Installing the latest autoconf and automake helped.
