Not necessarily since the man file could be built during creation of  
the dist. However, this is internal stuff and not something we want  
to expose in a dist. For that you should check out the full version  
of monit from CVS by following these instructions; http:// 
savannah.nongnu.org/cvs/?group=monit  It is also a good idea to patch  
against the CVS version since files between releases does change. If  
you can change your patch to include patching of monit.pod from  
configure via a new monit.pod.in file and also keep the hardcoded / 
usr/local/etc as mentioned by Martin it would be great.
