    version 1.6 of GNU automake.
    (If you are using Debian 3.0 "Woody" you can try to downgrade to version
    1.4 of GNU automake shipped with this distribution; it should work, too.)
+Q: I cannot connect to remote peers and I use the chroot option. ngircd says:
+   ngircd[2152]: Can't resolve example.com: unknown erroror!
+
+A: On Linux/Glibc with chroot enabled you need to put
+   some libraries inside the chroot as well, notably libnss_dns; maybe others.
+   Unfortunately, even linking ngircd statically does not help this.
+   The only known workaround is to either disable chroot support or
+   link against dietlibc instead of glibc. (tnx to Sebastian Siewior)
