I've documented that problem, ftell / fseek give unexpected results
in text mode.

Apparently nobody reads what I'm posting, I'd rather go fishing :)
I've already submitted a patch for this.
I had no reply.
The mkdir.m4 macro just _DOESN'T_WORK_. It always returns "no",
while it should return "yes" under Windows.
Then GNU patch would configure and build successfully, there's
no need to patch anything else than the m4 macro.
Manu.
