Hmm, this seems weird, I looked into the config.log after running

configure: failed program was:

configure:15584: result: libungif.so
This is a result of the dynamically loaded libungif.so / libgif.so, it expects
that it has this symbol.
So exactly what distro has this problem, all modern ones should not have it.
Ciao, Marcus
This is debian, with the giflib3g-dev package; with the libungif4-dev
package the problem is gone, but I was trying what was wrong with
configure in that it didn't detect this (I proposed configure could
ensure gif library would only be enabled when the correct library was
installed); I have no idea why configure ignores this error?
HTH,
