Oh right, you were correct, I installed the missing libtool package and the
autoreconf command now worked as well as the configure and make commands,
thanks! I could try testing this bulk mode change out on the newer code
base as well. I was trying to think of ways to simulate a client
reconnection scenario to see if everything like the options and data and
buffers being reset would recover and resume properly as well. :)
