OK and that maches what I saw.

The strange thing is that simply running bootstrap.sh on my system (without
any modifications) produces a configure script that cannot be sucessfully
executed.
And what bothers me is that installing res-memcached (see reference above)
requires such configure script to be run (after editions in
configure.acand other files).

Thanks for taking time to explain.
