Re: nmap4.85beta10 on Mac OS X 10.3.9

i can only send you last few lines of the configure script's output 
where the problem occurs, the patch however is beyond my knowledge..

Compiling libpcre
cd . && /bin/sh /Users/xenon/Desktop/nmap-4.85BETA10/missing --run 
autoheader
aclocal.m4:20: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.63.
You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not 
guaranteed to.
If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system 
entirely.
To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically 
`autoreconf'.
configure.ac:17: error: Autoconf version 2.60 or higher is required
aclocal.m4:475: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE is expanded from...
configure.ac:17: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 1
autoheader: /usr/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1
make[1]: *** [config.h.in] Error 1
make: *** [pcre_build] Error 2
[1]    24827 exit 2     make

make: *** No rule to make target `libpcre/libpcre.a', needed by `nmap'. 
 Stop.
[1]    25167 exit 2     sudo make install


Thanks,
 Sergej
