Yes. Thanks. I don't know what I was thinking.

If you patch autoconf/automake stuff, you *MUST* add autoconf/automake
dependency to your package, so you can regenerate the files. It is
much simpler to patch also the generated files and avoid this

Should also not be a problem, since those patches are likely to start
from a known release tarball, so autoconf

In fact, I would suggest that using the newest autotools when
creating the package makes it *more* likely to build effortlessly
on older systems.

You have two roles of environments:
1. Developer/packager workstation.
2. Target environment.
For example, 1 would be my computer, and 2 would be the old redhat computer.
You go to (1) and do:
$ autoreconf -ivf
$ ./configure && make dist
Now, you transfer the

This is not the way to do it.
Use AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS in autoconf, which detects libc settings.
The current autoconf shape is poor, long ago I offered James to
rewrite it but he refused. I only made it partially work for cross
compile.
There are a lot of none standard/best practice stuff

This is to include peercred support on hosts where _GNU_SOURCE is not
defined by default. This issue has been found on Gentoo with glibc-2.8.
The solution was discussed on the IRC meeting March 4, 2010
in #openvpn-discussions.
