Sorry, I should have checked this before filing the last bug. Due to a
PATH_MAX occurance in autoopts/load.c, autogen FTBFS:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I../autoopts -O2 -MT libopts.lo
-MD -MP -MF .deps/libopts.Tpo -c libopts.c -fPIC -DPIC -o
.libs/libopts.o
In file included from libopts.c:15:
load.c: In function 'optionMakePath':
load.c:225: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function)
load.c:225: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
load.c:225: error: for each function it appears in.)
In file included from libopts.c:27:

The attached patch fixes this, autogen builds fine on hurd-i386 now.
Maybe your upstream wants to go down the cleaner solution though -
figuring out the needed length of the pathname and allocating memory
dynamically.
cheers,
Michael
PS: autogen is a Build-Depends for gcc-4.0, so this is pretty important
for us to get in. I can NMU if you want.
