I didn't have this issue Friday, but as of today I do. I'll check it out soon.

Ditto my previous response.

Much of what is there existed from the original tar/diff/patch
distribution. Some of it can be eliminated and some of it cannot.
Unfortunately there is somewhat of a circular dependency between
package framework and the autotools. IIRC package framework needs
some of the auto* generated files before the auto* tools are actually
called themselves. I looked at eliminating this, but it was
non-trivial.

I am wondering why it worked for me on Friday and is broken today. I
generally pride myself on being a little more careful than this. I do
know that the snapshot I posted Friday was done in a hurry before I
ran out the door for the holiday.
I will try to clean all of this up and post something later today.
