Thanks, but that still doesn't work for me - if I leave the include as #include "config.h" or #include <config.h>, I get errors like: In function ‘main’: ../../trunk/src/tuxmath.c:47: error: ‘PACKAGE’ undeclared (first use in this function) But with #include "../config.h", the build succeeds as a VPATH build, (albeit with gettext not working, which is what lead me on to this search). fwiw, I have a branch of the tree from a few weeks ago where everything works as intended, including gettext. There is just a lot of code that has changed with this merge - I'm hoping someone has some suggestions for where to look for changes that could cause this problem with autoheader functioning correctly. I'm suspicious that my problem with gettext not working is closely related.
