This looks to have solved it for me! I haven?t run icecast yet, but checking the
./configure output shows
checking for pthread_spin_lock... yes
checking for curl-config... /usr/bin/curl-config
checking curl/curl.h usability... yes
checking curl/curl.h presence... yes
checking for curl/curl.h... yes
checking for libcurl... yes
Thanks so much to Petr and tth for guiding me through this. I appreciate your
patience.
Damian
