This works by magicly starting up a new thread that can be killed when the
timeout is reached. testtesttest!

one to prevent that.

just to avoid making a totally empty file. Just to avoid compiler warnings.

and I doubt anyone else uses it.

Better preprocessor magic for the O flag (for curl_off_t printing) to prevent
compiler warnings.

It is working with earlier versions, but when I use it with 3.0.3, I can't
get it to ignore errors in "system headers" with -isystem so we get
excessive amounts of warnings on SSL headers which is very annoying.

without proto

it collides with another MAX define on some platforms (like netbsd 1.6.1)

only accept return code 7 to indicate that there's no server present.

this will make us exclude icc 8.0 etc.

a corresponding -isystem, if using gcc, to inhibit warnings on those
headers.

we bail out!

better detect test suite failures
remove the buildlog at exit
make a random buildlog file name, now in the same dir where the build dir
is created
checks if the ares build succeeded

to find the files/dirs to remove so that it still works if we "die" after
having done a 'cd'

default netrc file. We now read and uses HOME _before_ we use getpwuid() to
better allow users to move around HOME to use different .netrc files without
having to rely on even blacker magic.

use as aggressive warning options as possible for the used compiler version.

item 25 is now dealt with using the curlx_ prefix, mentioned in detail here:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2004-02/0215.html

officially using library-code when building the app (at least for the platforms
that don't have a strtoll() on their own).

linked separately by the application. This function is not provided by the
libcurl API. It can only be accessed by apps if they compile and use this
particular source code.

now scan the PATH ourself to find the path to (g)libtool

figure it out here anymore to build debug builds.
