Ok then, use a hook for the rename. 

Might make more sense to do one patch for pkg-config with subdir
-objects, because these are linked - which subdir objects you get
depends on pkg-config?

And then another patch for mysql-config. So two patches?

The original feedback I got was that the autotools implementation for
radlib was hopelessly screwed up. I was trying to strike a balance
between limiting changes but improving the overall flows. 

I used with 'with' instead of 'enable' because of the semantics ...

If a package _must_ be available on the platform for it available to
choose then 'with' makes more sense than 'enable'. Radlib supports more
than one back end so selecting a backend by indicating 'with' made more
sense to me. 'enable' is typically for features whereas 'with', is
typically used to indicate building 'with' a given package. 

That said I am agnoistic, I am happy to revert to AC_ARG_ENABLE to
reduce the patch.

np, will fix.

ok.

Ok - I am pretty sure I got feedback to change these conditionals to
HAVE_, but no problem I can fix.

I will investigate ...
The original INCLUDES was pulling in host directories. 
Not sure why the switch to AM_CFLAGS

nope, no special include is needed for SQLITE.
