I never did figure out exactly why the correct directory wasn't found by 
CMake.  I am having memory problems and I can't remember the problems 
that I reported as bugs in CMake that I was told weren't problems at 
all.  Maybe this is related or not.

My working theory is that it is a combination of the fact that KDE will 
fail to remove empty directories when you delete something and CMake 
doesn't ignore empty directories when it doesn't find what it is looking 
for in them.  Automake/Autoconfig scans all directories to find what it 
is looking for.  It only has a problem if you have several versions 
installed.  Empty directories aren't a problem like they are for CMake.

But, I was still going to apologize after I got at least the part the 
BLFS covers build.  Well, I did and it doesn't work.  So, perhaps my 
statement about quality control will turn out to be correct after all.

I will start another thread for that.
