Applied to master, thanks. I've tried to do the same for the gmock
package (the 1.7.0 release is available from
https://github.com/google/googlemock/releases. However, since it's
fetched from Github, it doesn't have the configure script
pre-generated, and GMOCK_AUTORECONF = YES doesn't work.

I guess moving to using the CMake based build system would make more
sense, but that's a bigger task.

Patches welcome :)

Thomas
