Pine has historically built against an internal copy of the c-client library,
however c-client development has progressed beyond what is shipped with pine.
(It would appear that all new development work is being done via UW's imap
server codebase.) This change allows pine to utilize improvements/bugfixes in
the c-client library. In addition, the cclient port builds c-client as a
a shared library. Now, pine links against this shared library. As a result,
pine binaries are approximately 550k smaller. On the other hand, the c-client
library itself is a good 650k. The real benefit here is that c-client may be
shared amongst multiple binaries (i.e. imap-uw, php, and perl scripts using the
p5-Mail-CClient module), thereby potentially reducing the overall disk and
memory usage.
