Re: Package global fails to compile on MacOS 11.1

[Shigio YAMAGUCHI]

Hello,
I apologize for the inconvenience caused by my misunderstanding.
Now, I understand that your patch should be applied to configure.ac.
It will be included in the next release.
Thank you very much.

I apologize for letting you spend your precious time by my
insufficient confirmation.

Regards,
Shigio
