[xmlroff] Building xmlroff from CVS

[Dave M. <da...@da...>]

I'm attempting to built xmlroff from CVS, but am having problems.

I checked out the source, and ran "./autogen.sh", followed by
"./configure --help" then "./configure" to check things were sane.  Upon
typing "make" it builds until the final stages, where I get the
following error:

Making all in .

libtool: link: CURRENT `' is not a nonnegative integer
libtool: link: `::' is not valid version information

It looks to me like the macro in configure.in to setup the version info
hasn't worked properly; it's come out as "::" rather than "0:2:3" (or
whatever)

Have anyone got any suggestions?  Have I forgotten something obvious? 
Should I have set something when I configured the code?

BTW This is on a Red Hat 9 machine.
