I see what you mean and will do a commit to fix those. Only one init 
function is needed and we'll just register the function inside.

That is the result of not being able to compile current CVS version and 
working on an older file, 0.10.0 release actually.

Nevertheless, I've already commit the fix for it.

Still unable to compile it due to some errors in "drv_HD44780.c, 
drv_LPH7508.c and drv_generic_keypad.c".

Will you need any help on those?

Btw, why the need for autoconf 2.59e? I pretty much remove those checks 
to be able to use autoconf 2.59 and it still compiled all the same...
