can't find giflib30... Problem Solved!

[Leonardo B. Lopes]

	Executive Summary: If you HAVE libgif or libungif but the
configure script can't find it, create a link from "libgif.so" to
libgif.so.3 and run ldconfig. That link should have been created by the
rpm that installed giflib but it was not.

	It turns out that the kdesupport rpm does NOT install giflib if it
already is installed, so in this case, installing KDEsupport will not 
fix the problem. I copied the program from the aciniclude.m4.in out,
compiled it, and sure enough it failed. Then I went through all the files
in /usr/lib and noticed that all of them had links from *.so to
*.so.MajorVersionNumber EXCEPT libgif. This is probably a bug in the rpm
that installed the system. (RH5.2)
