Ah!  "Try to use as many system packages as possible"!  What a fascinating 
title!
This is the very reason why I started reading Calcote's "Autotools (2ed.)"!
Many of the SPKGs are already included as RPM packages in Fedora, but they 
are not used!  At first I thought they were left undetected by the build 
system (therefore I started the reading), but it is because the GCC in 
Fedora is too NEW and the dependent packages are built along with older 
GCC...
