That suggests a problem with configure.ac though I don't see what,
nor do reproduce the issue here.  Were both hunks of the second patch applied?
Note both patches I supplied are against the original configure.ac from the tarball.
I.E. please use the orig configure.ac from the tarball and apply only the second patch.

thanks,
Pádraig.
