thanks a lot for your patches. It seems like you have a lot of auto-foo experience to share. I'm merging them right now.
Thank you! I have been working with autotools (and other build system) for a while — and I've been spending some extra free time trying to improve what's on most people's eyes so that they don't learn on outdated or broken examples.
For what it's worth, I also started writing a guide of my own:
http://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/
You can use it as a reference — and feel free to send me any question that's neither covered by the patch or the guide if you have doubts.
In case you find some more time, I would appreciate if you could also look at some of the other osmocom.org repositories, including openbsc, libosmo-sccp, libosmo-abis, and even the non-firmware parts of osmocom-bb, ...
I'll do that this week — I wanted to make sure the style was acceptable before spending a couple of days on patches that could have been rejected just for the way they were written, so I started with libosmocore alone — incidentally, this is the only one for which a release is in Gentoo, thus why I noticed this (yes the serial-building of tests was noticeable on a system with 32 cores.)
Thanks again, and will send soon more patches,
