Arrrgh! once again I press enter to change fields and submuit too early

It seems that some users has had problems with fam-oss and getting it to
compile, this is taken from IRC

09:38:08] <Imran_SR> lemon2: regarding fam-oss. It seems that the issue is with
the default .ebuild file for that package. cd /usr/portage/app-admin/fam-oss &&
emerge ./fam-oss-2.6.4.ebuild (not the -r1.ebuild)
09:43:05] <Imran_SR> Spider: was getting autoconf errors before. Looks like the
ebuild which worked for me is applying a patch prior to running autoconf

this goes together with the posts on the list from the 19th and 20th about
fam-oss not building.

Should be fixed now.  The auto{conf,make} guys should really do something
about a version that handle old *AND* new versions properly.

(Resolution: put libtool-1.4.1 back in use)
