Thanks, I've applied your patch to the next branch. However, I've done
a number of changes before applying your patch:

    [Thomas:
     - switch to using the CMake build system, which works better than the
       clunky autoconf + manual Makefile based build system.
     - add missing toolchains dependencies: does not build in static
       library configuration, needs C++, etc.]

If you could test the next branch, and verify that it continues to work
in your situation, it would be great.

Thanks a lot,

Thomas
