I traced the problem to configure.ac and tried this change:

I expected that to work, but the resulting 'configure' was no different:
        ;;
        *-*-freebsd*)

cat >>confdefs.h <<\_ACEOF
#define BEEP_CDROM_BSD
_ACEOF


Do you see any reason that patch shouldn't generate the right stuff
in 'configure'?

Thanks.
