configure works fine on a Suse 10.3 64 bit system but - strangely not an the
latest 11.1 64 bit
as a note pkg-config would solve both the include and lib flags problem -
but from what I can tell a new (and simpler) configure.ac wold be
required...
/usr/lib64/lib is a valid path - it just doesn't exist...
more later today
