Re: FYI: gdb/common/Makefile calling aclocal & autoconf...

I think Mark are right. We are probably on the second or third "one
last push" to make things work, and we're still not done. I'm really
sorry, but we have 3 Global Maintainers (Mark, Pedro, myself) who
think that this is the wrong way to go. We tried to perservere in
this direction despite our reservations, but it's still not working.

We've learnt a lot in the process, but I think it's time to head
in the other direction (no configure & make in common/).


Anyone strongly opposed to that move, please speak up now.
It's important, IMO, to do that soon, because we're not guarantied
that we will make everything work instantly either.  I will see if
I can produce some patches for review within a day or two (anyone
wanting to take care of that can, of course!).
