1. Good news!  Art Naseef has done some heavy lifting for us and
produced an updated version of a m4 script, that uses pkg-config to
configure Cppunit if the obsolete cppunit-config program is not
available.

The workaround script may still be necessary, but now in much rarer
circumstances.

2. He also found a problem with the library code for handling longs
that comes up only in builds with optimization turned on ('-O2'). This
causes one of the unit tests to fail.

For now, I think it's best to leave that be, as fixing it may not be
worth the effort (aggressive optimization is a nice-to-have extra at
best).

3. Another issue he uncovered was that the unit test for the Date
handling logic was not timezone agnostic. That was an easy fix.

4. The README file needs updating.  That seems the only remeaining
item that can be immediately looked into.
