Hi Eric
Finally, a question: what version of automake are you targetting?
In fact, I am not targetting any version of automake.
INN embeds a few m4 files provided by the rra-c-util package:
http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/rra-c-util/
INN's building system only uses Autoconf; it does not use Automake. INN
already has its legacy Makefiles (maintained by hand).
rra-c-util contains Automake macros, so importing for instance krb5.m4
from rra-c-util into INN would break the build because of an undefined
AM_CONDITIONAL macro.
That is why rra-c-util adds m4_ifdef([AM_CONDITIONAL], ...) in upstream
so that other programs, that do not use Automake, can directly embed m4
rra-c-util files without requiring Automake.
