Hi folks,

I'm trying to track down the build problem that seems to be happening
semi-regularly for people on the list.  Namely, that if they have an old
version of Barry installed somewhere, and they try to build the latest
CVS, the build picks up old headers or libraries and gives either build
errors or crashes.

The odd thing, for me, is that I never run into this problem, even if I
try to reproduce it.

I'm suspecting that it might be a difference of versions of autoconf.
But I'm still trying to hunt it down.

If any of you run into this problem regularly, I would greatly appreciate
your help in tracking it down.  I'd like to make the Barry build process
as bulletproof as possible, but it's hard to do when I can't reproduce
the errors. :-)

If you can reliably reproduce a build error like this, please respond and
let me know:

        - the old version of barry
                - where it is installed
                - its ./configure line
        - the new version of barry (assuming latest CVS)
                - where you installed it
                - its ./configure line
        - your distro and version
        - the versions of autoconf, automake, and libtool on your system
                - ideally, you could send me a copy of your toplevel
                  configure and Makefile files, and even your config.log
        - the build error you get

Thanks,
- Chris
