   +# Check for GNU Libidn
   +AC_ARG_WITH(idn,
   +  AC_HELP_STRING([--without-idn],
   +		[don't use GNU Libidn for IDN]))

Please do not use --with for features, use enable.  --with is used to
make a program work with something, like for example with the GNU
assembler.  From the GNU Coding Standard:

`--enable-FEATURE[=PARAMETER]'
     Configure the package to build and install an optional user-level
     facility called FEATURE.  This allows users to choose which
     optional features to include.  Giving an optional PARAMETER of
     `no' should omit FEATURE, if it is built by default.


Comments about the actual patch are left to Jeff and Alain.
