You're right on that one. It's just I never liked IRC.

Actually, the documentation of autoconf and automake is not that bad. But
unfortunately there are a lot badly written configure.in's out there.

I believe that it's not possible to make the cross-compilation work with
metaconfig (I'll leave it to Rapha�l to prove me wrong), so this is what I
did. Unfortunately, metaconfig uses a different naming style for the macros
it defines, and somehow I doubt that Rapha�l wants to modify metaconfig to
generate the same macro names as autoconf does.
