I've got the latest from gnome via svn, but got this:
librep]> ./autogen.sh Running autoheader autoheader: warning: missing template: BROKEN_ALPHA_GCC autoheader: Use AC_DEFINE([BROKEN_ALPHA_GCC], [], [Description]) autoheader: warning: missing template: BROKEN_RTLD_GLOBAL autoheader: warning: missing template: DB_RESOLVE_SYMBOLS ... The same in librep-0.17.2 works fine, and overlaying the svn version onto 0.17.2 doesn't change anything, so it isn't a missing file.
