Hi, im trying to make a project im involved with
(http://busybox.lineo.com/) more portable, specifically i want to make it
compile under GNU/Hurd as well as linux.
My initial thoughts were that autotools would be ideal, but busybox is an
unusal project and im unsure how to go about it.

Im trying to modify dmalloc's configure.in to use gcc as a linker
instead of ld.
I added the lines
if (gcc -shared -Wl,-soname conftest.so -o conftest.so.t conftest.a)
2>&5; then ac_cv_shared_link_args='gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,$@ $(LIBRARY)
-o $@.t'(other conditions)

Quite often i find myself looking at different projects configure.ac to
see how they do it, however often projects still using the old
configure.in, or dont solve the problem i have.
It may be usefull if there were a list of active projects that serve as
good examples of how it should be done.

I want to keep the root dir of my project as clean as possible so im
trying to use a seperate directory for the autotool scripts.
In my configure.ac i have
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR(./buildtools)
I do the following to add the required autotools files
$ automake --add-missing
configure.ac: installing `

That works... the AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR statement has to happen prior to
AC_INIT_AUTOMAKE, maybe it was a newbie error on my behal

Im involved with a project that supports the use of two crypt libraries,
i can do either ./configure --with-gcrypt to use libgcrypt or
./configure --with-crypto to use openssl.
If no options are given it will first try and use openssl, then gcrypt.
I do compile it --with-gcrypt without any proble
