Everyone has their own development habits, but mine is to completely
blow away the build tree, repopulate from the archive and run a
bootstrap script.  This way, I am sure that there are no dinkleberries
lying around that might give me a false sense of "everything is working."
Meanwhile, I'll try to dig through that M4 stuff and see if I can
piece together what is going on there.  I believe the NTP project is
always ``--enable-local-libopts''-ing, so it was supposed to be working.

Cheers - Bruce
