Recompiling opal and ptlib dozens of times too many with different
configure options to see if there's one option that makes it shit
itself it turns out that the option that kills opal from actually
detecting the correct ptlib is ironically --enable-opal. Without that
opal will detect the installed ptlib and compile correctly. Is this
option now dead but hasn't been documented as such or is there some
other issue?
