Not your fault, but here's what one gets when one visits
http://antigrain.com/ :

    antigrain.com expired on 04/09/2014 and is pending renewal or
    deletion

So, I'm a bit sceptic at adding this package, just because there will
shortly be no way of getting it... :-/

But wikipedia comes to the rescue, and points us to a "copy" of the
site, on sourceforge:
    http://agg.sourceforge.net/antigrain.com/index.html

You may want to point to SF instead.

Still upstream does not seem very active, and I'm a bit uneasy at adding
it...

BTW, strictly speaking, it is not *needed* by gnash. It is only one of
the few, somewhat-supported backends:
    directfb, OpenVG, OpenGLES1, OpenGL, Cairo.

Granted, only cairo and agg are enabled by default (others are
considered incomplete).

Yep, good, except you should now need something like:
    AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([src/agg_arc.cpp]) # give me a source file, any source file...

Yep! :-)

I know upstream looks pretty dead, but it might still be worth pushing
this patch to them if possible (once the nit above is fixed.)

Yep, die C prototypes, die! :-]

Ditto, point to SF instead.

Single line, please, it is not long enough to warrant a multi-line

Besides, the comment on that second line is part of the variable value,
so it might come and interfere with the build. Move it above:

    # Dont build examples, they need X11
    AGG_CONF_OPT += --with-x=NO --disable-examples

> +endif

Peter might disagree, but I prefer when there is an explicit else-clause
that does the opposite:

    else
    AGG_CONF_OPT += --with-x --enable-examples
    endif

(Or disable exanples altogether anyway.)
