--help just seems to hang; -h and -help seem to be ignored. >How-To-Repeat: ./configure --help >Fix: Not as such I'm afraid. But the configure script sets a variable "help" to "yes" if any of these options is set, but never checks it - perhaps that's the problem? >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
