Description:
------------
ext/mysql/config.m4 includes:

sinclude(ext/mysql/libmysql/acinclude.m4)
sinclude(ext/mysql/libmysql/mysql.m4)
sinclude(libmysql/acinclude.m4)
sinclude(libmysql/mysql.m4)

When building this extension separately and phpize
is called in the directory ext/mysql/, the former
two files don't exist and autoconf 1.8 aborts build.

The NetBSD pkgsrc fix to this is:

--- config.m4.orig      Mon Jul 14 12:43:51 2003
+++ config.m4   Wed Mar 31 12:02:43 2004

 dnl

-sinclude(ext/mysql/libmysql/acinclude.m4)
-sinclude(ext/mysql/libmysql/mysql.m4)
 sinclude(libmysql/acinclude.m4)
 sinclude(libmysql/mysql.m4)


Reproduce code:
---------------
Build mysql extension separately from main package
using autoconf 1.8.

Expected result:
----------------
The phpize phase eventually fails with:

aclocal-1.8: cannot open ext/mysql/libmysql/acinclude.m4: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

autoconf 1.8 is not supported. Use the snapshots from
http://snaps.php.net if you don't have the right tools to generate build stuff.

Sorry - I made a mistake with the specified version. Autoconf 2.59 is used. Automake is version 1.8.

Older automake (1.4) ignores the sinclude() if the specified file doesn't exist. Newer automake (1.8) exits with error in this case, however. So, this should be adressed sooner or later.

We'll address it when we start generating the distribution packages with the newer tools. Which won't happen anytime soon since the new tools are buggy.
