I don't have any trouble with that URL, thanks.  The problem is that I didn't 
have it in the first place, because that's not where the "Bugtracker" hyperlink 
on http://pdfedit.cz/en/index.html takes me.  The hyperlink is directed instead 
at http://pdfedit.petricek.net/bt/, which is redirected to 
http://pdfedit.petricek.net/bt/index.html (apparently an alternative URL for 
the PDFedit home page).

Ok.  The boost and t1 options are documented, and that's how I worked around 
the problem.

Thanks Michal.  I have more than a passing familiarity with Autoconf, so I may 
just take a stab at this.  No promises, though.


Cheers,
