Weird, it should really be compiled and included with the netrelease.

The server will build fine and I was also able to run the tests, but
most of the time all tests are failing, but sometimes one or another
succeeds.  Please relibtoolize before configuring, else there will be no
shared libraries.

broken (in the relevant socket part), like it is a mess with apache too.
