Hi

There seem to be a problem with glibc-2.2-current and libgd
compilation. If I configure glibc in a seperate directory it still finds
the gd.h header files I have installed in /usr/include but then fails to
compile the binary because at compile time it cannot find the headers.

There seems to be something iffy with the configure.in scripts for it,
the --with-gd option doesn't work properly, if I say --without-gd or
--with-gd=no it still finds it, I have to say --with-gd=/dev/null for it
to not find it.

My knowledge about autoconf is really limited so I'd rather have someone
who knows just how to fix this in a jiffy look at it.

Jes
