JFYI: I just applied another patch on top of it to check for autoconf >=
2.50 (required by AC_SYS_LARGEFILE), removed autogenerated
libipulog/Makefile from SVN and uncomment the @DEFS@ line in
Rules.make.in to pass -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 at compilation stage.

I'm still working with Marius Tomaschewski on several pending patches.
We'll release a new version once we've finish with them.
