One very obvious omission: the build scripts don't check
if g++ is installed.  Quite easy to miss without a clean
build environment, for sure.  Also easy to fix. :-)

When I run configure, one of the output lines says:

checking for g++... g++

which makes me think that there *is* a check for g++.

 I'm sure you are right.  I was trusting the build dependencies
given to me by dpkg-buildpackage, so it's /debian/rules that
need fixing.  My bad.

A trickier annoyance: The "-fPIC" thing.  Some architectures
need it, others can not work with it (as far as I know).
It would be nice to have rules that enabled/disabled PIC
according to the host architecture.

I expect that libtool and its automake/autoconf counterpart know the details. I don't think that we could do a lot about this apart from fixing libtool.

 Hum...  Could this be distro-specific?
