I've been working for some months on an autotooled mpatrol using the svn
version, with the help of Graeme Roy (the mpatrol author) for some
technical details. What i have done is in the AUTOTOOL branch of the svn
repository of mpatrol.

It is work in progress, but I think that I have now a working autotooled mpatrol
(linux and msys/mingw).

If some people are interested in testing that version of mpatrol, do the
following commands:

* svn co https://mpatrol.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mpatrol/branches/AUTOTOOL/
mpatrol_autotooled
* go to mpatrol_autotooled
* autoreconf -f -i
* ./configure --without-x
* make and make install of course

There is a problem with mptrace, using lesstiff (Graeme told me that the api of
lesstiff has changed several times), that's why i added --without-x as option in
configure to disable its compilation. You can try to compile mptrace (don't add
--without-x) , but you may have some problems when compiling it.

About linux 64 bits, the compilation should be fine.

If you have remarks, ideas, or regression reports, please let me know

regards
