Ok, I am ready to post the configure / Makefile patches.
I set the default to disable porcelain commands with configure, so 
people using lxc on small systems won't have to install extra library 
dependencies and an update won't break their builds.

To finish the patches, I need a few informations:

Does it mean you want to perlcc lxc.pl ?

In order to comply with the perl naming policy shouldn't we name LXC => 
Lxc ?

Hum, IMO we need to think about that and look if it is not up to the 
package maintainer to handle that.
