i've not done an autoconf before, and i suspect it will require not a small
amount of tweaking.

i suspect the BSD patches will head in the direction of a number of those
tweaks.

while we could all wait around for someone to magically autoconf the code,
in practical terms, i'm content to release the tweaks i'm making for
freebsd/netbsd/openbsd/OSX (when i get time to clean it up, next week).
