[Pan-users] Small portability issue

[Rhialto]

I'm updating the pkgsrc entry for Pan, and while doing that, it points
me to a portability issue in the configure script:

=> Checking for portability problems in extracted files
WARNING: [check-portability.awk] => Found $RANDOM:
WARNING: [check-portability.awk] configure:       
INTLTOOL_XML_NOMERGE_RULE='%.xml:       %.xml.in       $(INTLTOOL_MERGE) ; 
$(INTLTOOL_V_MERGE)_it_tmp_dir=tmp.intltool.$$RANDOM && mkdir $$_it_tmp_dir && 
LC_ALL=C $(INTLTOOL_MERGE) $(INTLTOOL_V_MERGE_OPTIONS) -x -u $$_it_tmp_dir $< 
$@ && rmdir $$_it_tmp_dir'

Explanation:
===========================================================================
The variable $RANDOM is not required for a POSIX-conforming shell, and
many implementations of /bin/sh do not support it. It should therefore
not be used in shell programs that are meant to be portable across a
large number of POSIX-like systems.
===========================================================================

git: not found

Also, "git: not found" seems to indicate that "git" is used in
configure?
