A quick search only showed problems with APR and HTTPd which both bundle
expat's source tree.  I'd say let the project fix it.

 However, I made a copy of expat to my home directory, and saw that if
 the exconf-buildconfig project uses the autoreconf as it's script,
 then expat seems to build fine.

I don't have any idea what autoreconf may be 8-)

 Of course, this means that other Gump installs would need to update
 their version of libtool (or it will fail on them).

helios is bound to go away and be replaced, I don't know which version
of libtool is going to be there.  Sander, do you know which version of
libtool is installed on the XServe machine?

 The other alternative is to downgrade libtool on vmgump.

Doesn't feel right.

We could install expat as well and make apr/httpd use the system
provided one so at least they will be able to build.  We can always make
the use Gump's expat once we figured out how to build it.

I'm going to wait for feed back from the list before jumping in and making 
changes to the expat metadata.  The other alternative is to downgrade 
libtool on vmgump.

It looks like this version of autoconf wants gettext installed.  I've gone 
ahead and installed it on vmgump (apt-get install gettext).  If this 
doesn't fix the next cycle for expat, I'll dig deeper.

From the errors, it looks like it doesn't like the new 64bit environment. 
But I don't have login access to vmgump2 to poke around more.

Hi,

is anybody around here familiar enough with autoconf or whatever is
involved in the build failure to know whether we can do anything about
http://vmgump.apache.org/gump/public/expat/expat-configure/gump_work/buildscript_expat_expat-configure.html?

It used to work on the old vmgump (with older autotools) and still works
on helios.
