These two message indicate that the 'configure' script was not correctly
generated.
I had guessed that.
There are many possible causes. Before you revisit your build system,
I would
- try the same thing from a pristine checkout (no leftover files from
a couple of years ago),
Countless years ago, my build process became blowing away the build tree,
cloning the repo tree, populating it only with managed files, and *then*
go in and bootstrap/autoreconf/configure/make. The configure stuff
has bit-rotted.
- verify that the -I options passed to aclocal contain the directory
where errno_h.m4 and stddef_h.m4 have been copied to.
It looks right:
libtoolize: linking file 'config/lt~obsolete.m4'
+shlib=run_autotools-177> doit /usr/local/bin/aclocal -I config
((note: I'm using a fancy PS4 here. viz. PS4="+${prog}=\${FUNCNAME:-=}-\$LINENO> "))
+shlib=doit-34> test x/usr/local/bin/aclocal '!=' x:
+shlib=doit-36> echo 'RUN: /usr/local/bin/aclocal -I config'
RUN: /usr/local/bin/aclocal -I config
+shlib=doit-37> eval /usr/local/bin/aclocal -I config
++shlib=doit-37> /usr/local/bin/aclocal -I config
