Don't forget to regenerate `configure'.

Thanks,

I never understand the rush to regenerate configure. It gets
regenerated before a release/pretest, and IMO anyone building from CVS
should be in the habit of running autoconf.

Not really feasible.  I'm usually testing on different OS:es and versions, and 
some don't have the required autoconf version.  I can go to an OS with the 
required autoconf, regenerate and copy configure to the other places, but it 
is more convinient to just do cvs up.

Fair point; regenerated.
