Changelog
+Daniel (18 January 2006)
+- As reported in bug #1408742 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1408742),
+ the configure script complained about a missing "missing" script if you ran
+ configure within a path whose name included one or more spaces. This is due
+ to a flaw in automake (1.9.6 and earlier). I've now worked around it by
+ including an "overloaded" version of the AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN script that'll
+ be used instead of the one automake ships with. This kludge needs to be
+ removed once we get an automake version with this problem corrected.
+ Possibly we'll then need to convert this into a kludge depending on what
+ automake version that is used and that is gonna be painful and I don't even
+ want to think about that now...!
