I'm not getting these last three lines in the Solaris build. I've been
poking around man pages but I really don't understand autoconf or
libtool. Is this a warning that's significant? I'm still not able to get
curl to build on FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE. The version of aclocal is the same
on both my build machines (1.8.2).

Also is there a primer for autoconf/automake/libtool that will help me
get my head into them? I don't really have time to read all the manuals
on the FSF web site.
