Building GNU tar from scratch failed because lib/getopt_int.h's declaration
of _getopt_internal specified a different signature from /usr/include/getopt.h
on my host (Debian GNU/Linux 3.1). I tracked it down to the fact that GNU
tar uses both argp and getopt, and argp was asking for the substitute
getopt.h but getopt then overrode the result. I installed this fix:
2005-08-16 Paul Eggert <address@hidden>
* getopt.m4 (gl_GETOPT_CHECK_HEADERS): Do not override the results
of gl_GETOPT_SUBSTITUTE. That way, if both gl_GETOPT_SUBSTITUTE
and gl_GETOPT are both invoked via different paths (as happens
with GNU tar CVS because it uses both argp and getopt), the former
wins.
