You complained, I asked what you suggest be done, you dropped the
thread, I forgot about it.  Sorry.

In your other recent post you write

21.5's configure makes no such assumption; in fact it tests for
several auxiliary libraries and makes a special extra test for -llber.
If that doesn't work on your system, there's not much I can do,
because it works on Mac OS X and it works on Debian Linux, and it
works on Cygwin (what Volker maintains).  You need to tell us what
will work on your system, or at least help us figure it out.

For starters, tell us what undefined symbols you're getting; we could
try testing for them the same way we already test for 'ber_pvt_opt_on'.
