Hello there,

which year do you intend to maintain Shishi properly?
You claimed version 1.0.*, so please accept the duty
to maintain this source, in preference to developing
other material from scratch. As long as you enforce

   ### configure.ac

   AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.10 -Wall -Werror -Wno-override])

with "-Werror", you are responsible for being attentative
enough to adapt to recent tool changes.

automake-1.12 has made changes targetting AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
over AM_PROG_MKDIR_P, and separately become dependent on
AM_PROG_AR.

The former issue needs updated source from GNUlib as long
as "-Werror" is in use, and was attended to by GNUlib in
December, 2012. Observe also that AM_PROG_MKDIR_P will be
made obsolete in automake-1.14.

The issue with AM_PROG_AR is resolved by the patch below.

By the way, when do you intend to look into the issues with
getsubopt() and res_query() needed for portability to non-Glibc,
for which I have already submitted tried and tested patches?

Regards,
  Mats Erik Andersson
