1.  If you are reconfiguring this product, you _must_ use
    the config/bootstrap script.  The standard "configure"
    script is edited to produce a working script.  Specifically,
    this product will not build correctly when the source
    and build directories are different.  The following
    text is inserted at the beginning of the configure
    script:

        top_builddir=`pwd`
        top_srcdir=`echo $0 | sed 's@/[^/]*$@@'`
        top_srcdir=`cd $top_srcdir && pwd`
        if test "$top_srcdir" = "$top_builddir" ; then : ; else
          ( cd $top_srcdir
            find . -type d -print ) |
          grep -v '/CVS\|/RCS' |
          while read f
          do test -d $f || mkdir $f
          done

          ( cd $top_srcdir
            find . -type f -o -type l -print ) |
          grep -v '/CVS\|/RCS\|~$\|,v$\|/#' |
          while read f
          do
             test -f $f || ln -sf $top_srcdir/$f $f
          done
          sh ./configure $@
          exit $?
        fi

    This script basically turns the build directory into a symlink
    copy of the source directory.

2.  You _must_ have a libtool more recent than:
        ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.3c (1.607 1999/09/22 00:14:08)
    If you do not, then the resulting product will not work if
    someone uses a GNU ld that does not understand the option:
         --no-whole-archive
