openbsd faq, autoconf

Dear misc,

i have downloaded the gnu autoconf 2.73, gnu automake 1.81 and gnu m4
1.4.21 source files from ftp.gnu.org website.

when i try to compile, it gives out strcpy is not safe to use please use
strlcpy and someother functions message. I change the function but the
program is missing aclocal.

do i have to change all the not safe functions for gnu ? the gameoftrees
tarball compile and run without any issue.

i do not have connectivity to the internet for my desktop that is why i can
not use the ports system. i copy source code tarballs and install it
manually to /usr/local.


regards,
badli
