Problems in the build of Emacs-CVS 23.0.50

[Angelo Graziosi]

The following happens both on Cygwin and GNU/Linux Kubuntu 7.10.

With last CVS-23.0.50 configuring with

../configure --prefix=${prefix_dir} --with-x-toolkit=lucid

the result is:

...
Should Emacs use the GNU version of malloc?             yes
  Should Emacs use a relocating allocator for buffers?    yes
  Should Emacs use mmap(2) for buffer allocation?         no
  What window system should Emacs use?                    x11
  What toolkit should Emacs use?                          LUCID
  Where do we find X Windows header files? 
/usr/X11R6/include
  Where do we find X Windows libraries?                   /usr/X11R6/lib
  Does Emacs use -lXaw3d?                                 yes
  Does Emacs use -lXpm?                                   no
  Does Emacs use -ljpeg?                                  no
  Does Emacs use -ltiff?                                  no
  Does Emacs use a gif library?                           no
  Does Emacs use -lpng?                                   no
  Does Emacs use -lrsvg-2?                                no
  Does Emacs use -lgpm?                                   no
  Does Emacs use X toolkit scroll bars?                   yes
...

With CVS of 20080120 all worked fine using the above configure.

Should we really configure adding, now, --with-gif,tiff,... ?

It would be very annoying!
