26 not all of those dupes are correct, or the same issue. like Bug
27 287389 which is a bug in the configure step due to a broken toolchain
28 (which is already fixed and is a dupe of a different bug). or libltdl
29 which features prominently in the oldest and no longer exists in
30 recent versions.
31
32 at any rate, you really should clean it up with the latest error, or
33 simply punt it in favor of only the latest relevant information (like
34 Bug 282730).
