[Xastir] Problem under debian "Etch"

[William McKeehan]

I've installed a newer version of automake; that has removed the bootstrap.sh
erors and the configure errors. The gcc lines now have the
-DXASTIR_DATA_BASE=\"/usr/local/share/xastir\" as it should.

And the best part is that the build works and the executable works too!
