That's the intention, but there are some problematic files, most of which
I removed from my Debian-intended version.

I _think_ the current feeling is that libradius isn't ready to be split
off from the freeradiusd main section itself, and so I've made no effort
in that direction. The freeradius-autoconf thing in the diff is a good
example of that.

Do you have a use for libradius at the moment?

Please inline diffs, it makes them much easier to discuss. :-)

Blarg. Thanks for that.

src/modules/rlm_sql/drivers/lib is already being cleaned up, as of the
other day. (Since your snapshot, from the look of it)

libltdl/stamp-h1 is some weird problem with the build system, where the
regexp that's supposed to pick that up isn't. Should be an upstream fix,
not a Debian fix to my mind.

I really don't want to try splitting off libradius until we upgrade to
automake2.5 and the requisite libtool stuff. And that's lower priority
than getting 0.9.2 out the door just now.
