Seems like a weak way to check for a library, but I imagine that only the 
slackware and slackware-derived distros would have this particular issue:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for BLUEZ... Package bluez was not found in the pkg-config search 
path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `bluez.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'bluez' found
configure: error: Bluetooth library is required

$ BLUEZ_CFLAGS=-I~/files/bluez-libs-3.2/include 
BLUEZ_LIBS="-L~/files/bluez-libs/src/.libs -lbluetooth" ./configure

This lets it work, so there's a viable workaround for us old coots.  :-)

No, I was mistaken here.  I reran the configuration with the command line 
above and pkg-config told the configure script that fuse, openobex and libusb 
weren't found, but let it build regardless.

A complete separate protocol to do what?  v2.25 seems to get by fine without a 
notification subsystem.

Regarding dbus and an xml requirement -- the dbus wiki page seems to disagree 
with you on this.  From http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus:

"D-Bus' only *required* dependency is an XML parser (either libxml or expat)."

I will make another attempt at building dbus and bluez-3.2 under my embedded 
environment.  I may have been overly impatient in trying to get it to work.
