 FWIW I can confirm that I can build LMI without any other changes from the
current trunk after removing these extra lines (although I removed the 2
ones above, not those 2). I'll commit this and another small fix to
configure.ac later if you don't object to it (I seem to remember that you
told me once that I could commit to autotools files on my own).

 This might look like a small step forward for you but it's really a giant
leap forward for me as I'm finally going to be able to *easily* test all my
changes to LMI with g++ (albeit 4.5 and not 3.5 that you use but hopefully
this won't create too many problems and I also hope that you will switch to
gcc4 relatively soon as well) so I'm really, really happy about it.
