So I felt a bit masochistic today and decided to have another go at
building everything.  So far the biggest problem has been the dependency
on non-standard functions like atoll and stpcpy.  atoll is easy to
replace, since strtoll is ISO C compliant (C99).  stpcpy is a bit more
difficult since it's used in various shlibs that are part of gnucash (so
it's not a matter of including a copy of it in one place.  config.h is
included multiple times in various source files (ewwwww) so one can't put
a copy of stpcpy there (more correctly in config.h.bot).  The irony is
amusing, since stpcpy is actually tested for, but used unconditionally.

Of course a decent string class wouldn't hurt either....
