In part due to our prodding, the upstream has fixed the -fno-stack-protector
issue.  When the new version is released with this fix (should be soon), I'll
update and resubmit.  This will eliminate the need for running reconfigure.

Made some comments on the kmod in Bug 20; waiting with CVS branching til kmod
is ready

One further note about http://nbecker.dyndns.org:8080/RPM/blcr.spec, which
contains:

> #Generic i386 is NOT supported
> ExclusiveArch: i486 i586 i686 athlon x86_64 ppc ppc64 arm

I see it was discussed, but is that really needed? The buildsys will build the
package for i486 i586 i686 athlon due to this, which confuses people, as they
won't know which one to use. Isn't a i686 package sufficient if i386 doesn't
work? What about pentium3 and pentium4?

Some comments on:

http://nbecker.dyndns.org:8080/RPM/blcr-kmod.spec
http://nbecker.dyndns.org:8080/RPM/blcr-kmod-0.8.0-0.1.b5.fc10.src.rpm

- is patch0 really relevant for the kernel modules? If not it would be better
to remove it to get rid of the BR for autoconf automake and libtool, as all
users of the akmod package would need to install those (that alone is bad
already; but it also slows compiling the akmod down a lot)

- getting rid of the whole configure stuff (or at least some of it) would be
really nice to speed akmod compilation up (most of that is not relevant for the
kmod in any case)

- if patch0 needs to stay then a special macro needs to be set to get the BRs
into the akmod; e.g.

%define AkmodsBuildRequires autoconf automake libtool

For an example see
http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/rpms/madwifi-kmod/devel/madwifi-kmod.spec?root=nonfree&view=markup

- Cosmetic: Please include the first 6 lines from 
http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/rpms/madwifi-kmod/devel/madwifi-kmod.spec?root=nonfree&view=markup
and get rid of the old comment that is in the spec file right now
