Wouldn't have anticipated a hiccup against 0.8.2, but yeah, it was
against the codebase.

Doh!  I realize what's going on.  I run w/ the "autogen.sh" script that
is in the code repo, it has 

aclocal -I config

I guess you were running aclocal/autoconf/etc. by hand b/c autogen.sh
isn't released with the tar.gz.  Perhaps I should dist out the script
for those that are going to hack on the code a bit.
