Problems compiling from CVS

[Apurva Mehta]

Hi,
I got the latest l4-hurd sources from CVS but I am not able to build
them.

First up, when I do autoreconf -f -i -s, I get the following error :
"configure.ac:29: `automake requires `AM_CONFIG_HEADER', not
`AC_CONFIG_HEADER'"

Then autoreconf then exits with status 1 after some time.

After modifying the file as required, autoreconf and then ./configure
work fine. 

Second, when I do a make, I get the following error :

----
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/apurva/projects/hurd/hurd-l4/libhurd-cap'
source='cap.c' object='cap.o' libtool=no \

After modifying the file to get it to compile, the compilation
proceeds until:

I feel I am doing something wrong with the l4 libraries though. I have
compiled and installed the l4::Pistachio kernel. I do have an l4
subdirectory in /usr/local/include. I think that these have been put by
the pistachio installation.

When I do a `make install` in the libl4 subdirectory of the l4-hurd,
it installs the files into /l4. How do I make the build process use
these headers?

Regards,
