I think it is a Unix thing,  mostly.
But,  yeah,  used more often with C than other source langs.
I use it with Assembler sources.   Have for years.   Recently have
used a "native" CMS make tool,  but used OpenVM make before that.

But ... back to the topic ...

> ./configure  --enable-smartalloc  --sbindir=/bacula/bin
> --sysconfdir=/bacula/bin  --with-pid-dir=/bacula/bin/working
> --with-subsys-dir=/bacula/bin/working
> --with-sqlite=/bacula/depkgs/sqlite  --with-working-dir=/bacula/working

Some reduction may be gained from

        ./configure --prefix=/bacula --enable-smartalloc

MOST packages have a smart enough 'configure' script
to lay things out nicely under a prefix.   This renders
the package thus built as highly portable  (in binary form,
so only across the same HW and OS architecture)  and non intrusive
(does not collide with OS programs and files!).

I have no idea if such redux would help your situation.

It detected SuSE,  specifically rel 9,  so that's good!

This could be a show stopper.
The bacula developers need to be informed.
If it is a show stopper,  then 'configure' should fail
(or should arrange things so that the BUILD won't fail).
