one more non-review note for Mikuláš:

+ autoreconf -i
autoheader: WARNING: Using auxiliary files such as `acconfig.h', `config.h.bot'
autoheader: WARNING: and `config.h.top', to define templates for `config.h.in'
autoheader: WARNING: is deprecated and discouraged.

autoheader: WARNING: Using the third argument of `AC_DEFINE' and

I really don't want to do much about this (I am not programmer myself and I
don't claim to have any more knowledge about autofoo than sitting in our office
to one its maintainers), but just I am confused:

a) shouldn't be autofoo run only on the machine of the guy who creates the
release tarball? So support on other operating systems shouldn't be that
crucial, right? (I don't know why we do autoreconf here, and I don't care)
b) 2.13 is REALLY old. Which platform does really need it these days, which
wouldn't have the later one?

Just questions, nothing to do with the package review.
