It 'just works'.....

So now I have a completely warning free ./configure....


... *and* I now get syntax highlighting colours in my ssh session
running file on Termux on my 'phone.  Don't ask me what was wrong
before but an entirely clean ./configure and make seems to have 
got it working.  :-)


I have to say the whole process was faster and easier than I remember
way back when I was developing C/C++ on Solaris, it's amazing that a
'phone now packs what feels like more computing power than those
Solaris workstations did.
