Comment:

 Fixed in r136039.

 libkml 1.2.0 always builds and installs its own copy of liburiparser;
 there is no configure argument to let it use an already-installed copy. A
 [https://code.google.com/p/libkml/issues/detail?id=50 bug report]
 was filed and a patch was provided to enhance the configure script to
 provide this, but it was never committed to the repository; the project
 has not been updated since 2010. Several developers have forked it to
 github but none have declared themselves to be authoritative and released
 new versions.

 To use the patch, I had to regenerate the configure script. This uncovered
 [https://code.google.com/p/libkml/issues/detail?id=186 additional]
 [https://code.google.com/p/libkml/issues/detail?id=190 bugs]
 in the configure script when used with recent versions of autoconf, for
 which there were more bugs and uncommitted patches provided.

 There is an additional problem in the configure script or Makefiles when
 used with recent versions of autotools which causes the build to fail when
 dependency tracking is on, which is the default when not building
 universal. No patch was provided for this so I just disabled dependency
 tracking.

 The build system relies on liburiparser's .la file existing, which
 MacPorts deletes by default on OS X 10.9 Mavericks and later, so I had to
 modify uriparser not to delete its .la file.
