 	Rather than reply twice in this thread .  Your recipe of using only 
"autoreconfig -i" also produced a ./configure script without error(s) & built 
the three binaries successfully .

 	AND ...

 	Thank You Nick , For those rpslcheck tests .  Each produced the results 
that you specified .

 	But ,  I do notice that in the "rpslcheck -help" output it mentions 
"-prompt" and its default value ,  please see below from "-help" .
 	There's always a "But" isn't there :-\ .


 	Based on your report back I'll enter a github issue for the erronious 
listing in the "-help" output !  ...
