Which in turn means that developing with it takes 6 times longer (think of edit, compile, run cycle. Yeah, someone wrote that build system with a couple thousand LOC) - limited support of m4 command set. We use some commands such as esyscmd which are supposedly unsupported by the newer autoconf tools (or as the main autoconf guy puts it "It was never supported!!!! Read the documentation!!!!"). We work around that by trashing the autoconf cache every time. > lol who cares? Do you generate a configure every hour? Try "per minute" and you get close. - Sascha
