It will be done ...

What should I call it?  I added the 'c' extension to indicate
'configure' but I notice that the header file says that lcms 1.10 is
actually 1.10b, so it seems that the 'c' was accidentally a natural
progression.  :-)

The lcms header files contained extra CRs at the end of many lines.
I stripped these extra CRs so they use proper Unix line terminations.
Maybe this is the whitespace change you are seeing?  I did strip out a
bunch of porting logic which was rendered unnecessary, and added a few
minor fixes to compile using GCC under Windows (MinGW).

Currently the configure script is performing substitutions directly on
the two lcms headers.  This seems to work fine as long as the lcms
headers don't need to #undef anything.  If an #undef is needed, then a
third header will be needed for configuration since otherwise
configure will comment out the #undef lines.

I hope so too.
