  No.  What I said was that FreeRADIUS doesn't use libtool.  What I meant was "FreeRADIUS doesn't use libtool"

  If you're editing a "configure" script to site-local changes, it's fine.  That's part of the build process.  We don't use "configure" when the server is running.

   As I said... don't use "autogen.sh".  This doesn't mean "leave the output of autopen.sh alone, and try to do something on top of that".  It means start over.
