I think the ./configure script needs a min version check.
Yes, I think so too. Rob, could you advise on a suitable minimum and
perhaps patch tools/configure.ac and/or m4/ocaml.m4 as necessary.

Also CCing Roger who added the ocaml autoconf stuff.
The Ocaml autoconf stuff was picked from http://forge.ocamlcore.org/.
Here is an untested patch for our configure script to check for the
minimum required OCaml version (3.09.3):

(remember to re-generate the configure script after applying)
Not sure if the older Autoconf (2.68) is at fault, but I get:

dcs-xen-54:~/xen/tools>autoconf configure.ac >configure
configure.ac:14: error: possibly undefined macro: AS_IF
        If this token and others are legitimate, please use
m4_pattern_allow.
        See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:162: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
On Debian systems you need the autoconf-archive package which provides
the AX_COMPARE_VERSION macro, and then you also need to run aclocal
before autoconf.

Roger.

The CentOS 5.10 system has a too old autoconf to do the rebuild, So I
went to a Fedora 17 system.

It does have autoconf-archive package, nut that make no difference:


Installed:
   autoconf-archive.noarch 0:2012.09.08-1.fc17

Complete!
dcs-xen-54:~/xen/tools>autoconf configure.ac >configure
configure.ac:14: error: possibly undefined macro: AS_IF
       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
       See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:162: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
Did you run aclocal before autoconf?

Thanks, Roger.


That did what was needed.  And it looks to be working.  However, with patch:

http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2014-02/msg00826.html

Which looks to be going in, the version that is checked should be changed to 
3.09.3 from 3.09.4.

Note: The commit message does not match the code.
