Politically correct way of building dhcp?

[Andrew Pollock]

Hi,

I notice that the DHCP software doesn't use GNU autoconf to build, and in
fact I'm find it all a bit weird compared to other stuff I've worked with in
the past.

What's the politically correct way of convincing it to use
specific/additional compiler flags? Like I'd like to build it with -O2 -Wall
for example.

If I go 'make CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall"' it seems to wipe out some -I's that would
normally be added, which makes the build fall over.

Are there any plans to use GNU autoconf/automake etc down the track?

regards

Andrew
