Good to hear that. I think Dan Egnor (liboop author) would change
liboop's configure script the same way I hacked lsh's, if you just
explain to him why it is necessary.
We've exchanged a few mails, but as I'm neither using nor
understanding uClibc, I'm probably not the right person to do that.
My interpretation of the matter is that the conflict between libnsl
and glibc (and perhaps the mere existence of libnsl) is a bug in the
uClibc environment.
BTW, the configure script hack, which replaces AC_CHECK_LIB with
AC_SEARCH_LIB, seems to be useful also on Cray's Unicos OS, as that
linker seems to accept any -lfoo option, and just prints annoying
warnings about the library not existing. I have *almost* got
lsh-1.2.5 to compile on Lysator's old Cray YMP running unicos 9.0.2.
