Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] Don't run personality syscall at configure time; don't check it at all

Yeah, aclocal needs to pick up the -I options.  If we used automake, it
would pick them out of Makefile.am, but since we don't I guess it
doesn't know how.

Simon> Do we need to list ../config/pkg.m4 in our acinclude.m4?

I think we could do that.

This area remains under-developed AFAIK.
