1040-abs-problem.patch Avoid ambiguous use of abs() causing build failure. Avoid failing build with GCC 7 due to abiguous use of abs(unsigned int).
The problem is this:
unsigned int a, b, c; c = abs(a - b);
The type of a - b here is unsigned int, and abs(unsigned int) do not
exist. I solved it by changing the calculation to use signed long
instead, as abs(long) exist and should be able to handle the entire
value range.

1060-autoconf-newer.patch Update autoconf file to work with newer versions Rewrote several parts and require version 2.72, to get the build
working again. Upgrade was partly done using autoupdate. The patch
could use some work, but as upstream is no longer accepting patches,
I did not try to make the changes generic and work outside Debian.
