HAL Dependencies

I'm trying to compile hal-0.4.3 from source.  The configure complained 
of a couple of missing dependencies (pci.ids and libcap).  Having 
resolved those the configure script completed successfully.  So, onto 
'make' then:

fstab-sync.c:59:18: popt.h: No such file or directory
fstab-sync.c: In function `main':
fstab-sync.c:1651: error: `poptContext' undeclared (first use in this 
function)
fstab-sync.c:1651: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
fstab-sync.c:1651: error: for each function it appears in.)
fstab-sync.c:1651: error: parse error before "popt_context"

So, fstab-sync.c appears to want popt installed, but this isn't checked 
for in ./configure.  Any chance this could be added, so that the 
configuration/compilation bails out as soon as possible?  Additionally, 
fstab-sync.c is compiled even if one doesn't pass --enable-fstab-sync.c 
to configure!

Thanks,

Matt.
