I agree that I'd like that it built like a standard package, but I
think this would set a precedent in LFS to make patches that perform
major surgery on the build system.  This is what I don't like when you
go to the distros.  There's 15 patches making non-trivial changes to
configure, Makefile.in, etc when the same thing can be accomplished
without them.  If we're going to use this patch, then why wouldn't we
go clean up bzip2, too?
