Another general hint on 'poptify' patches:

You need to update the Makefile.in to include the  @BUILD_POPT@, and you
need to ensure that you *don't* use automatic variables to initialse the
poptArgs struct (becouse some C compiles can't cope with that).  This
means making these variables static, or filling them out in the
function.
