I should say: of course. ;-)
Remind me that I remove the scons bullsh*t eventually...

That's a feature, not a bug. If you're using CVS/svn/git/hg, you never
check in files that can be generated automatically. They're only
included in release tarballs.
All you need to call is autoconf, by the way. We do not use automake.

Shouldn't be too hard to add an #ifdef for that.

Strange directory names you have, young Skywalker...
The Linux way would be to just add the directories to /etc/ld.so.conf.
Adding the -Wl,-R option shouldn't do any harm, however (it works on
Linux and Solaris as well). But I need to figure out the path to add.
I suppose you used configure --with-qt3=/usr/pkg/qt3 or something like
that? Where does the /usr/pkg/lib come from?

Not necessary. All I need is your patch, the original version and a
short "diff -D__NetBSD__" :-)
Any idea if the procedure will work on {Free,Open}BSD as well?
