hexchat-2.12.2-configure.ac-remove-werror.patch
autoreconf -fiv, should then fix it
I appreciate the help, Martin. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the same
error:
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4
configure.ac:19: error: macro AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS is not defined.
Is autoconf-archive installed?

I'll cc blfs-support. From BLFS book change log:
* December 12th, 2016
+ [bdubbs] - Update to hexchat-2.12.4. Fixes #8635.
Does not work for me using the latest development version of LFS
(vmlinuz-4.9-lfs-SVN-20161221) with all required and recommended BLFS
dependencies.
hexchat is pretty simple. I do not know why you are using a patch. All you
should need is:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
(as root) make install
I put my log at
http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~bdubbs/files/hexchat-2.12.4.log. See if
you can spot any differences from what you have.
I'm using a later version of Glib and it is complaining about
autoconf-archive not being installed. My log is on the left:
< checking for GLIB - version >= 2.34.0... yes (version 2.50.2)

I just got back from a trip and have not set up all my systems yet. I can
do that tomorrow, but in the meantime, I see AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS is
defined in hexchat-2.12.4/aclocal.m4:
AC_DEFUN([AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS],
[AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED([AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG])
AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED([AX_APPEND_FLAG])
for flag in $1; do
AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG([$flag], [AX_APPEND_FLAG([$flag], [$2])], [],
[$3], [$4])
done
])dnl AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS
But why is autoreconf called at all? It should not be needed. I admit
autoreconf fails for me as above. It looks like the problem is with
hexchat's configure.ac as AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS is used before it is
defined. It does look like they want autoconf-archive to be installed:
HEX_CHECK_MACRO([AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS], [autoconf-archive])
BLFS does not need autoconf-archive, so we don't install it.
