Hello,
   I downloaded the blitz++ source code from CVS yesterday because I need to
use it with g++-4.0.0. The CVS site seems to be quite unreliable. I only
managed to reach it once and could not reach it at all today. I ran into some
problems while trying to generate "configure"
   $ autoreconf -fiv
The error messages are:
  autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
  autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
  autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4
  aclocal:configure.ac:76: warning: macro `AM_DISABLE_SHARED' not found in
library
  autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing
  autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool
  autoreconf: running: /home/psong/stow/autoconf-2.59/bin/autoconf --force
  configure.ac:76: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_DISABLE_SHARED
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
  configure.ac:77: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
  autoreconf: /home/psong/stow/autoconf-2.59/bin/autoconf failed with exit
status: 1

This problem had been reported before on this list, but not with the latest
version of autoconf, automake and libtool. I am using a Linux box (Red Hat
Enterprise Linux WS release 3 (Taroon Update 5)).
