Developer notes
===============

A. Adding tools

i. Put it under a directory in tools/.

ii. Add it to the tools/Makefile.am.

Be sure to add it to the correct conditional block area if dependent
on optional libraries, otherwise just add it to TOOLS_SUBDIRS.

iii. Add it to AC_CONFIG_FILES in configure.ac.

iv. Add AM_CONDITIONAL statements in configure.ac if dependent on optional libraries

v. Edit gen_tools_am:

Add to %tools_ggo_flags if the defaults are not sufficient. Also, add
to %tools_other_packages if dependent on optional libraries.

vi. Be sure to run gen_auto to recreate configure and Makefile.am files.

vii. If added library in src direction, update src/Makefile.am file accordingly
