Thanks - it works. Mind you a 6000 line Makefile is a little excessive
(there are 6 such AM_CONDITIONALS in use now I've put them all in
place).
Most of the lines are truely irrelevant as well - such as:
@ENABLE_HTCP_TRUE@@ENABLE_UNLINKD_TRUE@@MAKE_LEAKFINDER_TRUE@@USE_DELAY_
POOLS_TRUE@@USE_DN
SSERVER_TRUE@@USE_SNMP_FALSE@ HttpHeaderTools.$(OBJEXT) \
httpheadertools has no dependencies on the possible values of any of the
conditionals.
It would be a lot easier if I could just do what the doco implied, and
can be done with the _PROGRAMS target...
Or maybe I'm hitting a bug?
