I am having a hell of a time compiling GRUB with the DOC patch.  The 
old versions of GRUB won't compile using the recent versions of GCC 
(see grub bug #3343 and 8729).  Fine.  So I load RedHat 7.3, but that 
has too old a version of autoconf and automake.  And automake-
1.5.tar.gz on the Gnu site is corrupted!  (It appears RH8 has the 
required automake 1.5 and autoconf 2.53, but I don't have that). 

I'm wondering if it would be more worth my time to rework the latest 
patch (grub-2003-11-10-doc.patch) to work with the more recent 
versions of grub. (0.96 for example)

Has anyone attacked this recently?  I saw a couple unanswered posts 
within the last 6 months (is that all, just a couple posts?) from 
others who are having this problem.  Perhaps someone else has solved 
this allready (I hope...)
