autogen-5.18.1.ebuild.patch

Simple patch for autogen to support multilib.
I had to add "--with-libguile="${EPREFIX}/usr/$(get_libdir)"", otherwise autogen would try to link against 64bit guile. (on x86 build)
Please review

guile is used in binaries only, so there's no need to convert it. I think we actually need non-native libopts only. Could you try to prepare an ebuild for that, please?

While I'm nearly certain this ebuild is wrong, it still seems to produce 32bit libopts.

The problem here is the bootstrap dilemma - some of the sources of libopts might need autogen in some cases and it needs libguile. However if there's no patching in those files, things seem to work.

What is this precisely good for?

Don't remember, why i initially wanted to add multilib here. I'm pretty sure at this point it's not important anymore and gonna close this bug.
