    Dear List,
                several of my problems were my own fault. I'd managed to
    delete some important stuff from /usr/share/aclocal* . Then I ran into
    the missing CMU definitions, and after some threshing around found the
    useful but not very conspicuous comment about using aclocal -I cmulocal,
    not just aclocal. So far so good. However, I'm STILL not picking
    up the definitions of
    SASL_DB_PATH_CHECK()
    and
    SASL_DB_CHECK()
    These are substituted in the version of 'configure' actually supplied,
    but it's not at all clear how that was generated from configure.in
    (nor even that it WAS). The macros are defined in sasldb.m4, but when
    and how does that file get scanned for the m4 macro definitions inside
    it? As far as I can tell, it doesn't. I can't see how even another
    old version of autoconf - I'm using 2.60 - would solve the problem,
    though I don't really understand the autotools chain so well that I
    can be certain.

        Others have said (without being specific) that the current autotools
    won't regenerate the files properly, which MIGHT be what I'm seeing,
    or something else falling under the same description.

        I only have so much life and time to spend on this. Can someone
    cast some light?
                                            Bernard Leak.
