While that would fix one problem, I suspect there will be other problems. The new autoconf simply behaves differently with respect to command line options. I suspect that trying to finesse this behaviour will lead to trouble. Better to adjust the command line options depending on the version of autoconf used in the subdirectory, or convert all the configure scripts at once. Ian
