I am sorry, but I neglected to run it.  I feel intimidated
by the huge and complicated build systems and their scripts
with which I have to deal it when contribuing to third-party
projects.  When, however, I deleted `configure' and I re-
generated it with `./autogen.sh', nothing changed.  I had a
warning about another macro:

   configure.ac:215: warning: macro `AM_PATH_ALSA' not found in library

which is indeed missing from my system, but it said nothing
about AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11.  Yet, it still is there in
the generated script, unexpanded.

Now I did.

I thought so because it didn't work after I "installed" this
macro into /usr/share/aclocal/ .

Now that I have regenerated the configuration script, seen
no warning about this macro, and it has remained unexpanded,
I don't know what to suggest.  I have made sure my
`autogen.sh' invokes `autoconf'.
