Did you re-run `autogen.sh` and `configure` after the source code
base change that impacted
`<a href="http://configure.ac">configure.ac</a>` and/or the m4 scripts it
includes?<br><br>

Hello Jim.<br><br>
Of course not! But now that I have, everything builds fine. Thank
you.<br><br>
Bill<br><br>
[Anecdotal...read at your leisure]<br><br>
Many, many years ago I was instructing one of the office staff on the use
of a word processor application that was new to them. As long as what I
instructed fit what the person was trying to do everything was fine. But
if they tried to do something that was outside what had been taught they
went off into the weeds. I was familiar with the application and could
pull them out of the weeds and get them back on track to accomplishing
their goal.<br><br>
[This probably says a lot about the instructor rather than the staff
member, but that is not the point. :-) ]<br><br>
As someone who is just trying to get a driver to work well, I just needed
to know how to build the project and add my driver files to it so I can
build/test/change/build/test/repeat. I did that build months ago and have
stayed in the 'drivers' directory pretty much since. Trying to fork the
repository (which should have been done at the start) and push my changes
caused the need to pull the master branch again which sent me into the
weeds. Jim, thanks for knowing how to get me out of the weeds
quickly!<br><br>
