No dummy .dep/*.Po files on AIX

Hi, I came accross a problem while building ImageMagick on AIX 5.1: Past ./configure, the 'dummy' .Po files for that build where all missing including the .deps directories. Consequently 'make' could not find the required files to include and aborted. I traced that down to config.status,

Hello, I have committed a variation of your patch. Please find it attached to this mail. I also bundled some other changes. In the manual, I recommend to use a newline-separated pattern list instead of multiple -e options. I hope this is portable; if not, please correct me. Nonetheless, I

Hi, If I have understood correctly using things like AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU, AC_FUNC_MALLOC requires the user to provide the missing file. I haven't found a centralized place where such files could be available. Do you know one? If not maybe it could be aded to the Autoconf
