Hi Ralf,

I had trouble applying this with git apply. Is it against git trunk? I
merged it manually however.

 $ git apply a
error: patch failed: NEWS:30
error: NEWS: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh:1319
error: libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: tests/execute-mode.at:210
error: tests/execute-mode.at: patch does not apply

However, I'm now getting so many problems that I suspect something is
seriously wrong. Before I list them, is there a document describing
what I should be doing after I checkout. I suspect I should run either
bootstrap, configure, or aclocal && autoconf && automake, but I had
problems with all three.

Thanks,
Paul
