Now `configure' in 21.4 breaks on the same systems and for the same reasons, as it did after revision 1.232 change in 21.5. Please either roll back the change in 21.4 or fix it both there and in 21.5. If choose to do the latter. <ldap -llber lost> posted to <xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org&gt; on Fri, 26 Nov 2004 22:57:47 +0300 (<027c41a78aba26-gin(a)mo.msk.ru>) described the bug as follows: Currently fixing it in my local 21.5 branch as follows. 2004-12-20 Ilya N.
