Survex 1.1.9 development snapshot uploaded

[Carlos "Guâno" Grohmann]

OK. I managed to compile and install Survex 1.9.1 on Ubuntu
I first run autoconf (don't know if that was necessary) and then debuild.
If anyone is interested the debs are at

http://www.igc.usp.br/pessoais/guano/downloads/survex_1.1.9-1_i386.deb
http://www.igc.usp.br/pessoais/guano/downloads/survex-svxedit_1.1.9-1_all.deb

seems to be working fine.
