hello all--having a bit of installation problem. i am working from the
unstable branch, 2.5.7, i'm a university student on a system that does
not stay as up to date with fvwm as i would like, so i'm forced to
build my own. i have a working libpng installed at: $HOME/bin/libpng/*
(using $HOME/bin as my prefix is just a habit i started a year or two
ago and i've got so many dependencies there i'd prefer not to break
it). here is a relevant snip from my shell, it seems to be breaking on
the png support checking..ugh.

% cat fvwm-options
--prefix $HOME/bin/fvwm --disable-bidi --disable-xft \
--without-gnome --disable-nls --disable-xinerama \
--without-stroke --with-png-library=$HOME/bin/libpng/lib \
--with-png-includes=$HOME/bin/libpng/include --disable-xrender
% ./configure `cat fvwm-options`
[...]
checking for Xpm 3.4g or better... yes
configure: error: argument must be boolean
./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `file'
./configure: exit: bad non-numeric arg `file'
