Will the use of autoconf help with the problems of paths and MacOS
variations? it should do, but maybe I am misunderstanding.  I've lost track
of the state of the autoconfing excercise as I was away - is it now part of
the standard therion package and build process or is more work still
needed?

I expect to get back on the case and package the latest Therion release in
the next couple of weeks and finally upload to Debian. Expect mails
accordingly :-)
