I've attached a file called Sablotron-0.37. In fact at the time I put this
together, the release version was 0.36, and this variant builds from there.
There are some relatively minor changes to source files, made in order to get
it to compile under FreeBSD, and with a slightly older version of gcc which
does not do exceptions properly. The bulk of the changes concern the build
system.
Many of the files are automatically generated, or automatically installed by
libtool, autoconf or automake. The files I have written for the build system
are the Makefile.am files in various directories, and the folowing files in
the base directory: configure.in, config.h.in, reconf. reconf is not strictly
necessary - it is a litte script for the pre-distribution steps that get
repeated over and over when modifying the build configuration files.
I haven't gotten make clean to work properly, and I'm not sure why. Make dist
is pretty funky though, and produced the file I am sending you. Some files
don't get included in this unless specifically included, so I expect that
parts of the expat dist and probably a few other bits and pieces are not
present. I haven't gone through checking for these.
Provided on a freely distributable, as is basis as per usual gnu terms. Not
tidied up to the point where it would have made a release candidate, but
hopefully it's informative. Please pass that proviso on if you're passing it
around.
