I just thought I'd post my results with doing this on a fairly bleeding edge Slackware 8.1beta system, mainly because it has autoconf 2.53 on it.Previously I tried running buildconf with autoconf 2.50, which didn't generate any of the additional warnings.
Although the the 'make'ed binary libphp4.so was identical in size my previous build, it was a different md5sum, so I thought I'd give it a shot. The good news is that things seem to be working correctly, and MySQL connects using sockets again! buildconf: checking installation... buildconf: autoconf version 2.53 (ok) buildconf: automake version 1.5 (ok) buildconf: libtool version 1.4.2 (ok) rebuilding configure configure.in:40: warning: do not use m4_patsubst: use patsubst or m4_bpatsubst configure.in:1259: warning: do not use m4_regexp: use regexp or m4_bregexp rebuilding main/php_config.h.in WARNING: Using auxiliary files such as `acconfig.h', `config.h.bot' WARNING: and `config.h.top', to define templates for `config.h.in' WARNING: is deprecated and discouraged.
