By the way, I never use git pull. I always do git fetch; git rebase origin, which is what you're supposed to do anyway if you have local patches in your tree. Another thing I do is run autoreconf, because I have local changes to configure.ac in my tree. That might have something to do with it. I have noticed a change in configure behavior, though. config.status creates the makefiles during make, not configure. I find that odd, but it still works, so I'm happy. Chip
