Hello, If you read my previous posts carefully, you will see that I mentioned that the code in question is automatically generated by the autoconf utilities, which are used by a very large number of open source projects. It is not Bacula code doing these things, so please for this issue address complaints to the autoconf guys.
Their tools, in my opinion, are a bit complicated and it took me several years to learn how to program configure.in correctly, but I can say, that we have never previously had any problems with them, and they are by far the most portable build tools that I have ever seen.
