[Evolution-hackers] compile problems with trunk: dolt



Hello,

I've mentioned it before in the context of MAPI, but let me raise
awareness of it again: dolt uses bash syntax which is not supported by
bash versions still in use today. I mailed the author, but didn't get a
reply. Please consider replacing the += in all acinclude.m4 files
(gtkhtml/evolution/evolution-data-server), otherwise users on older
systems will not be able to compile - I'm one of them. Patch attached,
can file a bug report if that's necessary.
