Debian patches review

Hi,

So you know what's going on with the Debian packages, here is a quick
review of the patches I currently apply to the Amaya source code, which
are attached.

* cflags_cleanup.diff : removes the forcing of CFLAGS, so they can be set
when calling configure.
* rdf_conf_in_conf.diff : moves the call to redland configure from
Makefile.in to configure.in.
* raptor.diff : only use libraptor instead of librdf, as no symbol from
the redland library is actually used.
* enable_system_libwww.diff : add a "--enable-system-libww" flag, and
moves the call to the libwww configure to configure.in.

I know you don't plan to merge the first one, it is only here for reference.
As you reverted the second one, I guess you had issues with it. I would
appreciate any feedback so I can modify it to be in a good enough shape to
be included. Could you please try to build (like you would do for a
release) for MacOSX/Fedora, so we can try to have it merged cleanly ?
When rdf_conf_in_conf is successfully applied, adding raptor.diff should
be fairly trivial. The result is quite interesting, as, since the removal
of the bookmarks feature, redland is not used at all anymore.
the libwww patch is quite intrusive, so I won't try to push it. Still, if
anyone wants to try it, any feedback will be welcome.

As usual, any question is welcome, I will be more than happy to help.

Thanks,
Regis
