+The git archive doesn't contain pre-built configuration scripts for
+UNIXish platforms. To generate them say
+
+ sh autogen.sh
+
+which in turn depends on the following packages:
+
+ automake (1.10.1)
+ libtool (2.2.4)
+ autoconf (2.62)
+
+The versions given in parentheses are known to work. Newer versions
+should work too, of course. Note that autogen.sh also sets up proper
+file permissions for the `configure' and auxiliary scripts.
+
+The autogen.sh script now checks the version of above three packages
+whether they match the numbers above. Otherwise it will complain and
+suggest either upgrading or using an environment variable to point to
+a more recent version of the required tool(s).
+
+Note that `aclocal' is provided by the `automake' package on Linux,
+and that `libtoolize' is called `glibtoolize' on Darwin (OS X).
+
+
+For static builds which don't use platform specific optimizations, no
+configure script is necessary at all; saying
+
+ make setup ansi
+ make
+
+should work on all platforms which have GNU make (or makepp).
