D'oh... that is a bug - it's fixed with my latest patch...

However, if you did not get that warning before, your configure script has not
been updated. Something really seems to be screwed here. Can you please tell
us how you applied the patch (as I asked before).

Maybe it's best you just checkout the repository:

  git clone git://git.verplant.org/collectd.git

... and build from there (using automake 1.9):

  cd collectd
  ./build.sh
  ./configure <your configure options>
  make
  make install

If you trouble compiling it, please don't hesitate to ask, but please provide
detailed information what you did and what kind of error messages you got.

Exactly, that's what you should try to avoid, please.

Cheers,
Sebastian
