GLib 1.2.10 CVS doesn't build with recent tools

[Frédéric L. W. Meunier <lists pervalidus net>]

Hi. Possibly with other GNOME modules.

I have autoconf 2.50, automake 1.4-p4, and libtool 1.4.

% ./autogen.sh
I am going to run ./configure with no arguments - if you wish
to pass any to it, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh command line.
