I will look into this. But I have a more general question first: so far I was under the impression that GCC and all of src always only builds outside the source directory (and consequently, I never tested that for the autotools upgrade). Which parts of src can (could) be built in-tree and for which parts is that usually done? Just so that I can avoid more issues. Wait ... did you start off with a clean tree after the autotools update, or did you run 'cvs up; make' with a tree that was built before the update? The latter might show spurious issues. Thanks, Ralf
