I'm trying to check out curlftpfs and have been having problems.

configure takes a very long time for me at:

   checking for working mktime...

and then returns no.  The make and make test passes.

Investigating, the configure test does

int j;
for (j = 1; 0 < j; j *= 2) do_test();

With gcc 4.7.1, this loops forever.  This is due to using a gcc option 
of -O2.  I filed a bug:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54475

--------------

For version 0.9.2, the single test fails.  I've actually dug into the 
test program and there is only one small part of the test that fails, 
but it still makes me uncomfortable.

As pointed out in the ticket, the package (0.9.2) was last updated in 
2008.  The version in the book (0.9.1) was 2007.

My question here are whether anyone actually uses this program and if 
not, should we just drop it from the book?
