Sadly, mod_wombat is stalled because I cannot figure out autotools, nor can I find anyone who understands autotools. Apparently everything is built by copying the macros from something else and tweaking them.. and praying.

I am coming around to building it with SCons, or if Jan finishes it, his Lua based autotools replacement. I am pretty sure waiting for him to build it, them learning it, will be faster than making autotools do what I want (ie, work).
