The ipv6 auto-detect test in configure returns a false negative when
CFLAGS contains -Werror=implicit-function-declaration. (I have been
using this flag to detect code issues that would result in SEGVs on
x86_64-cygwin.)

We've announced this pending removal for a long time and we've
repeatedly asked if anyone would care or if anyone objects. Nobody has
objected. It has probably not even been working for a good while since
nobody has tested/used this code recently.
The stuff in krb4.h that was generic enough to be used by other sources
is now present in security.h
For libc variants without a spearate pthread lib (like bionic), try
using pthreads without the pthreads lib first and only if that fails try
the -lpthread linker flag.

1 - We don't use the results from the test and we never did. recvfrom()
is only used by the TFTP code and it has not caused any problems.
2 - the CURL_CHECK_FUNC_RECVFROM function is extremely slow
This function was only used twice, both in places where performance
isn't crucial (socks + if2ip). Removing the use of this function removes
the need to have our private version for systems without it == reduced
amount of code.
Also, in the SOCKS case it is clearly better to fail gracefully rather
than to truncate the results.
This work was triggered by a bug report on the strcal prototype in
strequal.h.
strlcat was added in commit db70cd28 in February 2001!

Reported by: Jeremy Huddleston
Some basic checks we make were placed early enough in generated
configure script when using autoconf 2.5X versions. Newer autoconf
versions expand these checks much further into the configure script,
rendering them useless. Using XC_CONFIGURE_PREAMBLE fixes placement
of early intended checks across all our autoconf supported versions.
Tested with:
buildconf: autoconf version 2.69
buildconf: autom4te version 2.69
buildconf: autoheader version 2.69
buildconf: automake version 1.13.1
buildconf: aclocal version 1.13.1
buildconf: libtool version 2.4
buildconf: GNU m4 version 1.4.16
I ran the 2.59 version of autoupdate that updates obsoleted configure.ac
constructs to the 2.59 standard. With a little hands-on fiddling I
prevented it from ruining the quoting in AS_HELP_STRING() uses.
I subsequently also bumped the required autoconf version to 2.59
(released in December 2003) as I don't have an older autoconf version
around to test with and I can't be bothered to install one either...

automake 1.13 errors if AM_CONFIG_HEADER is used in configure script.
automake 1.13 no longer autoupdates AM_CONFIG_HEADER to
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, thing which automake has been doing since automake
version 1.7
Given that our first automake supported version is automake 1.7,
simply replacing AM_CONFIG_HEADER usage with AC_CONFIG_HEADERS seems
enough to yet support same automake versions.
Dave Reisner reported issue with 1.13 and provided patch.

BLANK_AT_MAKETIME may be used in our Makefile.am files to blank
LIBS variable used in generated makefile at makefile processing
time. Doing this functionally prevents LIBS from being used for
all link targets in given makefile.
AIX sys/poll.h header file defines 'events' and 'revents' as C
preprocessor macros. Usage of these literals in libcurl's external
API was introduced in commit de24d7bd4c causing AIX build failures.
Appropriate inclusion of sys/poll.h by libcurl's external interface
fixes AIX build and usage issues while avoiding a SONAME bump.
Removing this option as it currently only functions to lure people into
wrongly using it and falsely believing that libcurl will work fine
without using nonblocking sockets internally - which leads to hard to
track or understand errors.
This needs another look from the configure experts. I tested that
it works so far with MinGW64 cross-compiler; libcurl builds and
links fine, but curl not yet ...
Allow NTLM authentication when building using SecureTransport (Darwin) for SSL.
This uses CommonCrypto, a cryptography library that ships with all versions of
iOS and Mac OS X. It's like OpenSSL's libcrypto, except that it's missing a few
less-common cyphers and doesn't have a big number data structure.
This option may be used to build curl/libcurl using SSL/TLS support provided
by MS windows system libraries. Option is mutually exclusive with any other
SSL library. Default value is --without-winssl.
--with-winssl option implies --with-sspi option.
Option meaningful only for Windows builds.
Version number is removed in order to make this info consistent with
how we do it with other MS and Linux system libraries for which we don't
provide this info.
Identifier changed from 'WinSSPI' to 'schannel' given that this is the
actual provider of the SSL/TLS support. libcurl can still be built with
SSPI and without SCHANNEL support.
