For bringing the config.* files to a newer level you can just require
the "config" package and then run "%{l_prefix}/bin/config install ."
in the traceroute.spec:%build. This way you especially do not need the
aclocal.m4 patch and no dependency to AutoXXX.

Sure, Darwin is just fine. Kick your "findsaddr-socket.c" fix and the
the above "config install" into our "traceroute" package, please.
