Make dist didn't work for me, either, until I created all of the
documentation files in the doc/ subdirectory using robodoc...  I had
to do this as a separate step...

I noticed (after I posted it) that 0.16.1 said "Any", but I couldn't
figure out how to change it.

Not sure what you're saying...  are you saying I should upgrade autoconf
and automake on my system to newer versions?   Is that what controls this?


Also, as long as I have your attention, Carey...  Some people on the list
were discussing putting together some additional documentation for the
tn5250 project.   This seems like your area, you might want to talk to
them... :)
